I'll Bake It, You Eat It: Peanut Butter & Jelly Muffins

I started reading blogs about three years ago. I started out reading a handful and now that list has expanded to a few dozen. Some I scan quickly for recipes to pin on Pinterest but there are a few that I always read from start to finish. One of my favorites (and one of the first I started reading) is The Way the Cookie Crumbles. I don't know what it is about the blog, but I really like it - I like reading it and I've loved most of the recipes I've found on it. Including this one.

I've made these muffins at least five times and every time I do, I love them. This is in spite of the fact that I don't even really like jelly so that's saying something. I decided to make this recipe this week because I had a bunch of leftover raspberry jam that I made last week.

This time, I changed things up a little bit and used cake flour instead of regular flour and the muffins were really outstanding - the best batch I've ever made!

PB&J is such a classic combination that these really can't be anything but delicious. What I really like about them is that they're not overly sweet. The peanut butter gives them a savory side and jelly sweetens them up and keeps them moist. Every time I serve these, people compliment them and ask for the recipe. I've also made them in a mini muffin tin for bite size treats and they come out perfectly. I highly recommend that you add these to your brunch repertoire.
