HIDDEN SURPRISE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Grease the bottom ONLY of a 12-cup muffin tin.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
• In a second medium sized bowl, combine the egg, milk, vanilla and vegetable oil.
• Make a "well" in the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients to the well.
• Stir until the mixture is moist.
• Don't overmix - the batter should be lumpy.
• Fill the muffin tins half full.
• Now, here is the surprise - drop a teaspoon of jelly into the center of each muffin.
• Add more batter on top of the jelly so that each cup is 2/3 full.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
• When the muffins are baked there will be a jelly surprise in the middle.
