Strawberry Muffins With Jam

These little muffins are one of our new found favorites. They are super easy to make and very delicious. You have a slightly sweet batter with strawberries and a jam center. It is a new spin on ordinary muffins. You can switch out the strawberries for other fruits and use the same type of jam as you do fruit. Like blueberries with blueberry jam, raspberries with raspberry jam and so on.
