RELAX // Something Edible With Laurie Wolf
Strawberry Streusel Muffins Crumbly, buttery streusel topping takes plain baked goods to a new level. Using plump, juicy, in-season strawberries makes these muffins especially delightful.

Directions: 1. Make the muffins: Preheat the oven to 340°F. Line a standard-size muffin tin with paper liners, spray the liners with the cooking spray and set the pan aside. 2. In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, almond milk, sour cream, canola oil, and canna-oil. 3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. 4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing well. 5. Gently fold in the berries. 6. Spoon the batter into the prepared liners, filling each three-quarters full. 7. Make the streusel topping: In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Work the butter into the dry mixture with your hands to form a crumb topping. Top the muffins evenly with the streusel. 8. Bake the muffins until they are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. 9. Remove muffins from the tin and cool on a wire rack.
You can make the batter ahead and just bake when you are in the mood. It will last a few days in the fridge. You can also use the fruit of your choice. I mean, I wouldn’t use cantaloupe, but any berry or peaches would be lovely. If CBD is your jam, that’s a mindful choice. I find that starting the day with CBD makes a difference in both my energy level and my mood. ❖ Laurie Wolf is the author of such cannabis cookbooks as Marijuana Edibles, HERB, The Medical Marijuana Dispensary, and Cooking with Cannabis.
