JAMMY DOUGHNUT MUFFINS FOR SWEET& SIMPLE BAKES

When I saw this recipe in SWEET AND SIMPLE BAKES for this month s recipe for baking, and I was very exited to try one more interesting muffin recipe. And I wanted to give a trail before I post my entry for the challenge. and that was a big disaster. I fallowed the recipe but I think what I use to measure the flour that cup was wrong. I used my rice cooker cup , I thought that 1 cup is 100 g and I have taken 2 & 1/2 cups with that cup and that was wrong that cup is only 70 g. then last week I brought a kitchen scale and to day I measure the flour in that and that came 4 cups with that rice cup haaaaa. Now you can imagine how big mistake I have done. Any way mistakes only big lessons in our life naa. So with out perfect measure we can not bake, that is the lesson for me with this experiment. So here is the muffins with perfect measurement and thanks a lot to Maria and rosie for one more lovely recipe, here I go............................................

METHOD:--
1. Pre heat the oven to 375 degree F.
2. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt in to a large mixing bowl, and stir through the sugar.
3. In a large jug, lightly beat the eggs then add the milk, cooled butter and vanilla extract and beat together.
4. Pour the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined (do not over mix it fine to have a few lumps in the mixture)
5. Now spoon half the muffin mixture in to the base of each paper case.
6. Top each muffin with a tea sp of jam.
7. Now equally between each paper case, top with the remaining muffin mixture.
Bake in the pre heated oven for 15 to 20 minutes until well risen, golden and firm to the touch.
FOR TOPPING:--
1. Melt the butter in a sauce pan over a low heat.
2. Spread the granulated sugar in a wide shallow bowl with the cinnamon if using.
3. When the muffins are baked, leave in the tin for 5 minutes.
4. Dip the tops of the muffins in the melted butter and then rill in the sugar.
You can serve these muffins warm or cold.
