Ingredients
  • 2/3 cup whole fresh organic strawberries with the tops removed
  • 1/4 cup organic milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups white flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted organic butter, at room temperature
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 organic egg
  • 2 egg whites, at room temperature
Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.

Quarter the strawberries and puree until smooth. Measure 1/3 puree and set aside any extra to use for frosting.

Mix the 1/3 cup strawberry puree, milk and vanilla.

In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl cream the butter until light and fluffy. Continue to mix while slowly adding the sugar.

Mix in the egg until just barely incorporated, then add the egg whites 1 at a time until just mixed in.

In a few alternating parts, starting and ending with the flour mixture, mix in the flour mixture and strawberry mixture.

Spoon the batter into the cupcake pans and bake 20 - 25 minutes, rotating the pans 180 degrees during baking. The cupcakes are done when a toothpick comes out clean after inserting into the middle of the cupcake.

Cool 5-10 minutes in the pan then cool completely on a wire rack. Once completely cool to the touch frost the cupcakes with the fresh strawberry frosting.
