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.

PEANUT BUTTER MUFFINS
Based on a recipe from Bruce Weinstein's & Mark Scarbrough's book, "The Ultimate Peanut Butter Book". I'm wild about peanut butter! The authors say, "Muffin tins don't come in standardized sizes. This recipe was developed for a tin in which each indentation holds about 1/3 cup batter. If yours holds more, increase the baking time by a few minutes; if less, decrease accordingly." These may also be customized, per the authors, by stirring in "2/3 cup dried cranberries, raisins, or semisweet chocolate chips in with the flour. Or add 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon with the vanilla."

Steps:
- Place rack in center of oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
- Lightly spray the 12 indentations of a standard muffin tin with nonstick spray, or line each indentation with a paper muffin cup; set aside.
- Whisk the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, and salt, if using, in a medium bowl; set aside as well.
- Beat the peanut butter, sugar, and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute.
- Beat in the egg, then the egg white, and finally the vanilla until smooth.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula and beat in the milk until creamy and light, about 1 minute.
- Remove the beaters and stir in the prepared flour mixture with a wooden spoon or a rubber spatula, just until moistened. The batter may still be grainy but no white pockets of flour should be visible.
- Fill the muffin-tin indentations three-quarters full. Reserve any leftover batter for a second baking.
- Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted into one of the muffins comes out dry, about 20 minutes.
- Cool the muffins in the tin on a wire rack for 5 minutes, then pop the muffins out of the tin and cool completely on the rack.
- They can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Or place them in a zip-closed plastic bag and freeze for up to 4 months.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease the cups of a 24-count mini muffin tin with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the butter to a medium microwave-safe bowl and cook in the microwave on 50% power for 20-30 seconds at a time, just until melted. Add the peanut butter and stir to combine. Add the bananas. Mash the bananas into the peanut butter and melted butter until combined. Stir in the milk, egg, brown sugar, and vanilla.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon just until combined. Mix in the chocolate chips.
- Divide the mixture between muffin tins - about 1 1/2 tablespoons batter each. I use a cookie scoop - best invention ever!
- Bake until the tops of the muffins spring back when lightly pressed, 8 - 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool in tins for 5 minutes; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store at room temperature in an airtight container for 3-4 days. These muffins freeze well, too!
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas for a sweeter flavor and moist texture. The darker the bananas, the sweeter they'll be.
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- To make the muffins gluten-free, use gluten-free flour instead of all-purpose flour.
- For a dairy-free version, use almond milk instead of regular milk and vegan butter instead of regular butter.
- For a healthier version, use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour and reduce the amount of sugar.
- To make the muffins more festive, decorate them with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or dried fruit before baking.
