Hazelnut Muffins with Strawberry Jam
Makes 18 muffins.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. baking soda
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 8 Tbs. (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup finely chopped toasted hazelnuts
- About 1/2 cup strawberry jam
Directions
Preheat an oven to 400°F. Lightly butter the wells of a standard muffin pan.In a bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, stir together the butter, sour cream, egg and vanilla. Add the butter mixture and hazelnuts to the flour mixture and stir until just blended.
Fill each well halfway with batter. Using the back of a teaspoon, make a small indentation on top of the batter and add 1 tsp. jam to each. Bake until the muffins are golden and pull away from the sides of the pan, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack. Let the muffins cool, then remove them from the pan. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Yummy Breakfast Treat!
I've been making these muffins for many years. My husband and two sons (ages 7 and 10) love to eat the strawberry jam muffins while warm :). My younger son is allergic to hazelnuts so I just omit the hazelnuts and it's still delicious. Sometimes I use my heart shaped well baking pans for a special occasion or just to make it look extra special! It makes about 14 when I make it so if making for a lot of people, you may want to double the recipe. Yummy muffins!!!
