Cinnamon and Jam Doughnut Muffins

Every Sunday our Mum used to drag my sister and I to the local markets to buy fresh local apples and fabric to make our clothes.  Our treat (if we behaved ourselves) was always a hot Cinnamon and Jam Doughnut – minus the jam for me!  There was nothing like biting into a hot, sugary doughnut on a cold morning and it made having to wait in long lines worth it.  I’ve spotted a few different Cinnamon and Jam Doughnut Muffin recipes doing the rounds and finally got around to making them myself.

I was certainly not disappointed, these jam filled, sugary muffins are as close as you can get to the real thing and it took all of my self control not to eat one as soon as they were out of the oven.

They are best enjoyed warm, but we took a couple with us on a picnic lunch the next day and they still tasted pretty good.  I’m pretty confident they would also be freezer friendly – that is if there are any left!
