Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375° F. and line a 12 cup muffin pan with parchment paper liners.
- In a small bowl whisk together the cheesecake filling until smooth then cover and place it in the refrigerator to firm up while you make the muffins.
- In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In a smaller bowl whisk together the milk, egg, Greek yogurt and extracts. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and fold together with a rubber spatula until almost combined.
- Add in the diced strawberries and fold together just until combined.
- Scoop approximately 1 1/2 tablespoons of the muffin batter into the bottom of the parchment paper liners. Spoon 1/2-1 teaspoon of the cheesecake filling onto the muffin batter, try to get it in the center. Spoon another 1 1/2 tablespoons of the muffin batter on top of the cheesecake filling making sure it is completely covered.
- Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with raw sugar if desired. Place on the middle rack of the oven and bake for approximately 14-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
Notes
- The muffins are best eaten the day they are made, but may be frozen for a later date as well.
