Strawberry Breakfast Buns
Hello friends! May I tell you something?
Since we're friends...
I have cravings. Powerful cravings.
No, not preggers, not I. I just crave...
Mostly these cravings hit about 9:30pm, and are generally for things like nachos and (forgive me) Toaster Strudel. These cravings usually lose out to the fact that I am fairly cozy in my bed and much too lazy to get up. Cozy and lazy vs. getting up to operate the toaster oven. Mmmm...what to do? Zzzzzz...Snore. (That's me forgetting the craving and falling asleep.)
There are other times though, that a craving hits me in the middle of the day, and I think about that particular food all day, for days on end, until I finally make the blasted business! These strawberry buns are a result of LE CRAVE! Madness!
They are delightful, friends! I love them...buttery and tender, with pretty swirls of strawberry preserves. Eeek! I need another one...now!
You all have cravings too though, right? I'm not the only one...right? What do you crave?
Tell me all about it. I'm here for you.

Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 (8 oz.) pkg cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/4 cup whole milk
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup strawberry preserves*
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Grease 9 large muffin cups.
2. In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, beat together the butter, cream cheese and sugar until smooth, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs and beat well. Add the dry ingredients in two parts, alternating with the milk and vanilla. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling about 2/3 full. Drop 3-4 small dollops of strawberry preserves onto the top of each bun and, using the tip of a sharp knife, swirl the preserves into the batter. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center of a bun comes out clean. Allow the buns to cool for 8-10 minutes in the muffin pans and then remove them to a wire rack to cool completely.
*I usually use strawberry preserves, but you can use another other fruit preserve.

I've never seen this recipe before. It looks awesome. You've got me craving it now.
Hi there! I'm new to your blog and really enjoying your recent post. I have cravings all the time, mostly for something sweet after dinner ; )
These look marvelous. Cream cheese and strawberries are one of the best combos of all time.
YUM-O That looks so good!!!

Thanks so much for linking your delicious Breakfast Buns up at Muffin Monday!

These look so good. I would love it if you shared some of your recipes at Cast Party Wednesday tomorrow.
Thanks,
I hope to see you there!
Unfortunately I have those kind of cravings too at night...only I am still up at midnight and then it gets even worse:-) I am pinning this for sure...it looks super yummy and I will be craving it for sure tonight:-)
I am going to make some of these next week while my mom is here. I bet it would be awesome to make a huge batch and freeze them, then just pull one out nook it for 30 seconds and eat when you get the hankerin'.
Following you from "What's Cooking Wednesday" blog hop.
You sound like me!!! These look delicious!!
Ok, now you've got that craving into my head. Those muffins look so very yummy!
Thank you so much for sharing on Momtrends. I love checking out all the Friday Food submissions. You created a craving where there was none--that's how good your photos are! Have a great weekend!
Those look yummy! I am going to try them.
P.S. I am having a giveaway on my blog. There are great organizational tools and charts for moms and kids. I hope you will enter.
yummmm! I had strawberry muffins/bread/something floating around in my head for DAYS and finally gave in and made strawberry muffins the other day...it's so nice to give in to a craving! (of course, these look way better!) I hope I don't obsess over them for the next several days...
Visiting from Sweet as Sugar Cookies!
Brandy, your strawberry buns look delicious. I love sweets that are great for dessert but I can justify them for breakfast as well. I'd like to invite you to share your recipe on A Well-Seasoned Life's Sweet Indulgences Sunday.

Wow just made these my kids love them. Thank you
But instead of butter I used coconut oil and subsituded 1/2 of cup of the white flour with whole wheat flour they loved them.
I followed the coconut oil substitution and cooked in a 9x13 pan. The family loved it! Thanks!
