I really wish I could stop reading
this blog. Mostly because I cannot handle the hunger pangs that come along with reading it.
Today's recipe? Strawberry muffins topped with cinnamon sugar. I die, I die.

1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1/2 t ground nutmeg

2 eggs
1 c yogurt
1 t vanilla
6 T unsalted butter, melted
1 c diced strawberries (frozen is fine)

2. In a large bowl, mix together the sugar and zest until fragrant. Add in the eggs, yogurt, butter and vanilla and beat until creamy. Stir in the flour mixture, mixing until a batter forms. Do not over mix. Gently fold in the strawberries until evenly distributed.

Excuse me while I go gnaw on my fingernails and pretend that that satisfies me.
