Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven 375°F. Line a standard muffin pan with paper liners.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, milk, and eggs until blended.
  • Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet and stir until everything is well combined.
  • Fill each paper liner about 2/3rds of the way full (it takes about 2 1/2 tablespoons of batter per muffin).
  • Add a heaping 1/2 teaspoon of jelly to the center of each muffin and cover with a little more batter ensuring that the jelly is fully covered. Top with extra oats, if desired.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown on top and baked through. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean except for some jelly.

Notes

Tips and Techniques

  • You can use any flavor of jelly or jam that you like, or a variety. If using different flavors, I'd recommend also using different color paper liners to make it easy to tell them apart. For instance, for strawberry jelly, use pink paper liners. For grape jelly, use purple and for apricot, use orange.
  • Be sure that the jelly is fully covered with batter or it may leak out and burn.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
