The recipe: (Makes 1 dozen)
1 1/3 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup wheat germ
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup melted butter
1 egg
1 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/4 cup fruit jam
Preheat oven to 425 and grease muffin tin. Stir together the dry ingredients. *Notice my red mixing bowls, just love them! Thanks to my Mother-in-law!! In a separate bowl, mix together butter, egg and buttermilk.
Stir milk mixture into dry ingredients; mix just until combined. Fill tins half full with batter. Drop approximate 1 teaspoon jam on each muffin. Cover with the additional batter. Bake 18 minutes!
I used some of my homemade raspberry jam, but any will do. This is what I had on hand.
Finished Product! I would love to hear about your healthy whole grain recipes or your experience with whole wheat bread. Be sure to check out my recipes for the English Muffin Bread & Whole Wheat Pizza.

Thanks for visiting my blog-I am also in Michigan, and a teacher...
I love this recipe-I am having friends over on Thurday...and will be making these! Perfect timing!!!
This sounds really good.
Question: Have you ever baked with stevia? I am not using sugar or artificial sweetener at all right now. I do use the herb stevia for tea and lemonade but have never baked with it. Don't know if it would work or not.

Hi Kim, those sound delicious. I guess we are not much of a muffin family, but we'd gobble yours down for sure! :)
Oh, this is something I could make with my preschool class! Thank you!
