Ingredients

  • 2 cups white all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder dual acting
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • cup safflower oil
  • cup plain yogurt Greek is best
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup fruit preserves strawberry, blueberry, boysenberry, grape or whichever is your favorite

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour a 6-cup muffin tin. Alternatively, you can line each cup with baking cup liners. Set aside.
    Using a mesh strainer over a large bowl, sift flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda and sugar together. If you don't have a mesh strainer, you can pour all dry ingredients into a bowl and stir briskly with a wire whisk. Set aside.
  • In a separate medium bowl, add the oil, yogurt, vanilla and eggs. Beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed for 1-2 minutes.
  • Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined and no more visible flour remains. Do not overmix.
  • Drop one heaping tablespoon of batter into each muffin cup. Use a spoon to spread the batter up the side of each muffin cup, making a well in the middle.
  • Spoon a heaping teaspoon of preserves into each muffin cup.
  • Divide remaining batter between muffin cups and seal the edges with the back of a spoon so that no jam spills out.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes until well risen and golden brown on top.
    Remove from oven and allow to cool on a wire cooling rack.
