Strawberry Orange Muffins!!! Sweet and delicious with hints of strawberry, orange, hazelnuts and a little chocolate. If you’ve never tried this combo, you need to!
Growing up, I was always watching my mother. She did everything. She worked long days at her Korean grocery store, she was the owner, manager, kitchen staff manager, stock manager, she did it all. My mother taught me to always work hard and do my best. She was also the voice of reason and sensibility when my sister and I were fighting. I remember every little thing my mother did for us when we were growing up and even now, I am a mother and she is now a grandmother and she still does everything she can for us.
My mother’s birthday is April 15, yes tax day, and Mother’s day is in May so, when we were little, she would get double the homemade-we-made-these-in-school or whatever clay-pottery-thing we had painted gifts. This year, my brother, sister and I all pitched in and helped to pay the down payment for a car for my mother. I love my mom so much, I wish we could buy her a new house . . but the car will have to do for now. She still gets the awesome one-of-a-kind homemade gifts every now and then too. . Â only now they are from her grandchildren.
Mother’s Day is right around the corner. .  I’ve been leaving not so subtle hints for my husband on what I want . . so I’m keeping my fingers crossed. My husband usually makes breakfast for our family on the weekends so Mother’s Day is no different. I can’t wait to see what my kids have made or wrapped for me. Seeing how they have wrapped the gifts or what they used as wrapping paper is the best part.
A few weekends ago I came home from Costco with two huge containers of organic strawberries. It’s strawberry season now and I can’t get enough of them (this is a hint of what you’re going to see here on the blog over the next couple of weeks). After making 
So, I’m sharing one of my favorite combos for muffins with you today. And I’ve partnered with 
These muffins were so good. And I baked muffins today because they are easily transportable if you’re driving over to your mother’s house or they can easily be packaged up and shipped too for those of us who have our mothers out of town.
Make these muffins, serve them with this orange marmalade and you will be in heaven!

Strawberry Orange Muffins
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup finely ground hazelnut meal/flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- pinch of salt
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup non-fat plain yogurt
- 1/4 cup Bonne Maman orange marmalade
- 1 cup diced strawberries
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and grease (or line with muffin liners) a standard sized muffin pan. Using a large mixing bowl, mix together the flour, hazelnut meal, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- In a separate medium sized mixing bowl, mix together the butter, vanilla, eggs (one at a time), yogurt and orange marmalade. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry flour mixture and, using a rubber spatula, mix until just combined. Fold in the diced strawberries, orange zest and chocolate chips.
- Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin pan (I used a tablespoon sized cookie scoop and used two tablespoons of batter per muffin) and bake for about 20 to 24 minutes, or until a tester inserted comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for about 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Serve with the Bonne Maman orange marmalade.

I love to make my own jams and jellies from scratch but when I don’t, I buy Bonne Maman. It is by far the BEST! Love these muffins!
What a generous gift for your mother! You rock Alice! And these muffins — delicious!
Mothers seriously do so much. I am so glad we can truly recognize and appreciate them as we get older. These muffins are absolutely beautiful. They scream Spring to me.
That was so sweet of you all to chip in to buy your mom a new car. It sounds like she is one amazing lady.
These muffins look amazing! I love Bonne Maman jams!
These muffins look delicious. I am really enjoying using nut fours in my baking recently too.
What a wonderful little tribute to your mom. She sounds like such a wonderful woman. I haven’t really exited strawberry and orange together exclusively (they’ve seen each other around in fruit salads and stuff, nothing too serious), but I am definitely going to have to try it out now! These muffins sound and look fantastic!
Bonne Maman marmalade is so good, love the strawberries in that muffins, it must pair so well with the citrusy marmalade!
Costco is seriously the best. We’ve been going through the 4lb containers of strawberries on a weekly basis.
I’ve noticed that you use a number of different unique (aka not all purpose or wheat) flours in your recipes. Do you have a suggestion on where to buy them at an affordable price, or would the recipe still work with a different flour type?
Awww you are the best daughter!! Your mom must be so proud! I do love strawberries in my baked goods and these muffins look amazing!!
This is my favorite marmalade and the combo of it with strawberries sounds fresh and delicious!
Your mom sounds amazing! I can’t say I envy her a birthday on tax day!! Love these muffins and Bonne Maman is my favorite! I just bought their blueberry preserves because I’m addicted.
Love this post Alice! And these muffins. 🙂 Totally can’t pass up a sale on strawberries!
Strawberry Orange Muffins!! YESSSSSSSSS.
& Happy Birthday to your Mama. xx
