JAM-DANDY MUFFINS
Taken from an old cookbook I picked up at a flea market, these are light, fluffy, and totally comforting on a cold winter's morning. The jam called for is apricot, but I didn't have any of that, nor do I like apricots. Sugar-free cherry jam from a local Amish lady was my choice of filling. It was so deeelish! The muffins were so light and the jam was total decadence! I can't wait until I try the blueberry jam.
