For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of regular softened butter. If you don't have lemon extract, you can use vanilla extract instead. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in tough muffins. Feel free to substitute other berries, such as raspberries or blueberries, for the strawberries. These muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
