Aside from the pretty and delicious effect of the fruity centers, these moist, honey-flavored muffins lend themselves perfectly to the upcoming Yomim Tovim!
Muffins
1 and 3/4 cups flour (I used a combination of white whole-wheat flour and all-purpose)
1 and 3/4 cups oatmeal
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 eggs
1/2 cup Haddar Applesauce
3/4 cup Gefen Honey
3/4 cup oil
1 teaspoon Gefen Vanilla Extract
1/4 cup Gefen Soy Milk or other parve milk
Filling 1
2/3 cup Tuscanini Jam (flavor of your choice), OR
Filling 2
2/3 cup canned, whole-berry cranberry sauce
2/3 cup finely chopped apple
Prepare the Muffins
In a large bowl, thoroughly combine first five ingredients.
Add remaining ingredients aside from filling and stir gently until fully mixed; do not overmix.
To Assemble
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Prepare cran-apple mixture, if using.
Line cupcake trays with 18 paper liners; fill 2/3 full with muffin batter.
Drop 1 teaspoon jam or cran-apple mixture into the center of each cup, pressing in slightly.
Place pans in oven, bake 15 minutes, and remove to cool.
