Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Creamy peanut butter
• 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 units Large eggs
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Jam or jelly (any flavor)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the tin lightly with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until evenly combined.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk the creamy peanut butter, melted butter, and eggs until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Add the milk and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients and stir until incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 6

Spoon 1 tablespoon of batter into each muffin cup, spreading it out slightly to cover the bottom.

Step 7

Add 1 teaspoon of jam or jelly to the center of each muffin cup, then spoon additional batter over the top until each cup is about 2/3 full, completely covering the jam.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
