Peanut Butter and Jam Muffins

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 peanut butter and jam roll ups, or peanut butter and jam 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.

What you need:

• 2 cups flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup skim milk
• 1 tbsp vanilla
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup jam or nutella

What you do to make Peanut Butter and Jam Muffins:

• Start by mixing together the eggs, sugar, and oil.
• Add in your peanut butter here to have it mixed in well.
• Add in the baking powder and vanilla.
• Alternating between the flour and milk, add in them in, mixing well.
• 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.

Edited to add:

I don’t make this often but they are a delicious treat when I do make them. I like to make them when we are going to have a trying, busy day. Whether it’s when we are going to be spending the day running errands, or grocery shopping in the city. They make a great snack/lunch on the go.
