Quick Strawberry Jam-Filled Muffins

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam
  • Optional: powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the muffin cups.

Step 2: Prepare the Batter

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon (if using).

Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Combine Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 3: Fill the Muffin Cups

Add Batter: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of batter into each muffin cup to cover the bottom.

Add Jam: Place 1 teaspoon of strawberry jam into the center of batter in each muffin cup.

Top with Batter: Cover jam with another tablespoon of batter, filling each muffin cup about 3/4 full.

Step 4: Bake the Muffins

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, until muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center (not through the jam) comes out clean.

Allow muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 5: Serve

Dust with Sugar: Optionally, dust the cooled muffins with powdered sugar.

Serve: Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Cooking Tips and Variations:

  • Different Jams: Experiment with raspberry, blueberry, or apricot jams.
  • Fresh Fruit Addition: Add chopped fresh or frozen strawberries for more fruitiness.

  • Storage: Keep leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer freshness.
