Perfect dual-treat muffins with jam filling is a delicious and quick recipe to make with the family. They are just perfect to relish for breakfast, brunch, or dessert.
These muffins are not like regular muffins. Yes, there is a middle layer with jam filling. The jam in the middle layer flavours the whole muffin with the respective fruit flavour. Isn’t it interesting?
Jam-filled muffins are sinfully delicious. They are slightly dense with a jammy, chewy centre. It is like a sandwich muffin perfectly layered with jam.
The jam I sandwiched was homemade Easy Easy Raspberry Jam Without Pectin. You can layer any flavoured jam according to your palate’s preference.
Why this muffin is easy and simple to make?
- It is a simple one-bowl cake recipe, and it all needs simple pantry staples.
- It needs no fancy gadgets to whip the cake batter. A balloon whisk is enough to do the whisking job, though I used an electric hand mixer as I’m more used to it.
- It is a regular oil-based vanilla muffin recipe. You can add any flavour and mix-ins or jam available in your pantry.
Variations
- I used all-purpose flour for this recipe. You can use whole wheat flour or a 50:50 ratio of all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour. But the texture of the muffins will be different.
- You can swap brown sugar in place of granulated sugar. It is purely your choice. Again the colour and taste will vary.
- You can swap any jam of your choice, either homemade jams or store-bought.
Some Condiments you can sandwich in between the muffins.
