After seeing ApparentlyJessy’s Jam-Doughnut Cupcakes, it reminded me of fixing up a batch of my all-time favorite muffins: Jam-Doughnut Muffins. These muffins have the perfect amount of sweetness. The jam and sugar-topping make the plain muffin so special. Although I mostly eat these around lunchtime, they’re good for breakfast as well. ? them!
Jam-Doughnut Muffins recipe: Nigella Lawson - How To Be A Domestic Goddess
Ingredients:
- 1 1/3 cups self-rising cake flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- ½ cup milk
- 7 tablespoons corn or vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 12 teaspoons strawberry jam
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- With a fork, beat together the milk, oil, egg and vanilla extract. Stir this into the flour and 1/3 cup sugar to combine: the lumps don’t matter and if you overbeat the muffins will be tough. Spoon the mixture into each muffin cup so that it’s just under a third full. Then with a teaspoon add a dollup of strawberry jam, then top with more muffin mix so that the cases are just about full.
- Put them in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until the tops feel springy and resistant and the muffins have puffed up into little toadstools.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter slowly in a thick-bottomed pan, and lay the remaining sugar (& cinnamon) out in a wide, shallow bowl. As soon as the muffins are ready, remove them from their cups, dip them in the butter, and roll them in the sugar. Eat warm.
You know I forgot to take a picture of the jam in the muffin mix, but here’s what you do: you fill the muffin tin up till 1/3, then dollup a teaspoon of strawberry jam and fill with more muffin batter.
They peak up, but I love that!
For the topping, you take some sugar …
… add some cinnamon …
… and combine.
Dip the muffins in melted butter …
… and then in the sugar-cinnamon mix.
And this is what you end up with! Delicious, scrumptious muffins that you can’t keep your hands off!
