Raspberry Yogurt Jam Muffins #MuffinMonday

Raspberry yogurt AND raspberry jam are whisked through the creamy batter for these tasty raspberry yogurt jam muffins. They are a real teatime treat!

I’ve been moving about the planet this month and somehow Muffin Monday snuck up on me! Whenever that happens, I know that I can flavor muffins with everyday ingredients that are typically in my refrigerator or pantry, like yogurt and jam. 

These were a hit with my taste testers although one did say that she’d rather I not brush the tops with extra jam because, while it was delicious on a warm muffin, her favorite part is the crunchy top once they cool. Sadly, the jam on top softens the crunchy top. Personally, I thought the jam glaze added a nice pop of extra flavor! You do you.

Raspberry Yogurt Jam Muffins

Feel free to substitute your favorite fruit yogurt flavor and jam if you don’t happen to have raspberry at hand. 

Ingredients

For the muffin batter:

2 cups or 250g flour

1/2 cup or 100g light brown sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup or 120g sweetened raspberry yogurt

1/2 cup or 120ml milk

1/2 cup or 113g butter, melted and cooled

1/4 cup or 60ml raspberry jam

1 egg

For the glaze:

2 tablespoons raspberry jam - optional.

Method

Preheat your oven to 350°F or 180°C and prepare your 12-cup muffin tin by greasing it or lining it with paper muffin cups.

Whisk to combine your flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large mixing bowl. 

In another smaller bowl, whisk together your milk, yogurt, jam, egg and melted butter.

Pour your egg/milk mixture into your dry ingredients and stir until just mixed.

Divide the muffin batter between the muffin cups.

Bake in your preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes.  Brush the warm muffins with the extra jam to glaze, if using.

Remove the muffins and cool completely on a wire rack.

Enjoy!
