Ingredients
  

  • MUFFINS:⠀
  • ¼ cup coconut oil⠀

  • 1 large egg⠀
  • ½ tsp vanilla⠀
  • ½ tsp salt⠀
  • ½ tsp baking soda⠀
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

  • ½ cup diced strawberries ⠀
  • sliced strawberries for topping⠀

Instructions
 

  • Cream oil and sugar together then add the rest of the ingredients in order until you get a smooth batter.
  • Pour into paper lined muffin pan, drop in about 1 Tbsp of cream cheese filling into the middle of the muffins, top with sliced strawberry and bake 350F for about 25-35 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Makes about 6-8 muffins.
  • Tip: I cover the muffins loosely with aluminum foil halfway through baking to keep the tops from browning too much! Let cool before drizzling with white chocolate or powdered sugar glaze.⠀
