I've been craving peanut butter and jelly sandwich lately. I love making little half PB&J as a sweet treat in the afternoon, but some days I just couldn't wait till 2pm for my PB&J. I decided to create Peanut Butter and Jelly Muffins to eat the classic combo before noon.
TRICKY BITS
I found the best way to get the sweet sticky jelly into these muffins is by piping it in with a plastic baggy after the muffins have been cooled. Think of it like filling a jelly donut, but you have to create a hole first. I've done this with a knife and a chopstick.
I hope you love this PB&J Muffins recipe! If you make it leave a comment! You can also share a photo on Instagram and tag #meganvskitchen. Enjoy!

These were sooo yum! Thanks for the recipe, I filled muffin part way, added a dollop of jam then topped off with a bit of batter to seal. Worked out great and did not have to cut holes to fill after baking. Thanks again.
