Sometimes you just need something on the go for your kids that isn’t a sandwich. If you’re anything like our family you maybe ran out of bread, I can’t keep it in our house! Or maybe you just love peanut butter and jam as much as we do and love finding new ways to mix them up!
You can also make some roll ups, or bars. You can also find a lot more similar recipes in my Recipe Box (in the menu bar). I have made these muffins, many many times. We take them to dance, where we end up eating supper once a week. These are easy, portable and taste much better than an old PB&J sandwich.

Start by mixing together the eggs, sugar, and oil. Add in the baking powder and vanilla. Alternating between the two, add in the flour and milk, mixing well.
If you have used a mixer up till this point, I would stop now. I always do. For the sake of showing you the alternative, I used my Mixer for a minute. Add in your peanut butter and mix it well. The “batter” will rise all the way up your beaters not matter how you position them, or the speed you use. That sticky peanut butter.
Using a greased muffin pan, scoop batter into each cup, filling 3/4 full.
Taking about a tablespoon of jam and pat it into the base. It will go smoothly, these really are easy, in reality you could just put the jam on top, but it will make the next step a bit trickier.
Top your muffins with the rest of the peanut butter mix. Covering the jam completely. Bake for 18 minutes.
