Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven at 200 C or 400 F.
  • Mix together the flour, baking powder, caster sugar, butter, milk and egg.
  • Spoon mixture into muffin/cupcake cases half way.
  • Then add a teaspoon of jam into the centre of muffin/cupcake cases.
  • Pour rest of mixture over the jam so that it is now in the middle of the muffin/cupcake cases (sandwiched).
  • Bake in centre of oven for 15 mins (I used fan assisted oven so times may vary).

Tips:

  • For a creamier muffin, use full-fat cream cheese.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full, as the muffins will rise during baking.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
