Blackcurrant Jam Swirl Muffins, all the sweet flavours of Blackcurrant Jam swirled through a simple to make muffin.
Sometimes only a sweet treat will do and if I don’t have any goodies in the house, I often make muffins using a simple recipe and varying the flavourings depending on my mood. Or the ingredients I have to hand.
I had some visitors coming so mixed up this batch of Blackcurrant Jam Swirl Muffins using my homemade Blackcurrant Jam. Jam isn’t just for spreading on your bread, it’s great for baking too.

you are SO right, sometimes only a sweet treat will do… I love adding jams to cakes, it's such a simple but genius way to add instant flavour and gorgeous taste… the muffins look lovely x

I like muffins too, mostly because I can make a batch and freeze some. These look good! I'll have to see what jam I have lurking!
carmen says
So is that 2 and 1/2 tsp of baking powder in total?
Janice Pattie says
Hi Carmen, oops that should just be 2 tsps, not sure how that extra 1/2 tsp slipped in there. My apologies, I’ll amend the recipe.

while the flavour of these were excellent, they were quite on the dry side. I might try another time again. thank you for sharing your recipe
Janice Pattie says
Oh that’s a shame. Everyone’s oven is a little bit different so it might be worth either turning down the heat by 10 degrees or taking the muffins out 5 minutes earlier.
