Muffins with strawberry jam

Here’s a delicious recipe for muffins with strawberry jam:

Ingredients:

• All-purpose flour: 2 cups
• Granulated sugar: ¾ cup
• Baking powder: 1 tablespoon
• Baking soda: ½ teaspoon
• Salt: ¼ teaspoon
• Eggs: 2 large
• Milk: 1 cup (or any non-dairy milk)
• Vegetable oil: ⅓ cup (or melted butter)
• Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
• Strawberry jam: ½ cup (plus more for topping, if desired)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.

2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

3. Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.

4. Combine mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined (do not overmix).

5. Add jam: Gently fold in the strawberry jam, being careful not to overmix. You can swirl it in or leave it in larger pockets.

6. Fill muffin cups: Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. If desired, add a small dollop of extra strawberry jam on top of each muffin batter.

7. Bake: Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. Cool and serve: Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy your delightful strawberry jam muffins!
