PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY MUFFINS

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

2/3 cup whole-wheat flour
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3/4 cup honey-roasted peanuts, finely chopped
1 cup strawberry or grape jelly or jam

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Whisk both flours, the baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Whisk 1/3 cup peanut butter, the milk, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla and eggs in a medium bowl; stir into the flour mixture until just combined.
  • Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them three-quarters of the way. Tap the bottom of the pan lightly on the counter to smooth out the batter. Bake until the muffins are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let the muffins cool 5 minutes in the pan, then remove to a rack to cool completely.
  • Using a melon baller or teaspoon, scoop out a shallow hole in the middle of each muffin. Melt the remaining 2/3 cup peanut butter in the microwave until loose, stirring halfway through, 45 to 60 seconds. Spread the peanuts on a plate. Dip the top of 1 muffin in the melted peanut butter, letting the excess drip off, then dip it in the chopped peanuts to coat. Transfer to the rack and repeat with the remaining muffins.
  • Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon jelly or jam into the hole in each muffin. Let set 5 minutes.
