Jelly-Filled Muffins cont.

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon


In a bowl, combine the first five ingredients. In another bowl, whisk
the egg, milk, butter and vanilla. Stir into dry ingredients just
until moistened. Spoon half of the batter into 12 greased or
paper-lined muffin cups. Spoon 1 teaspoon jelly in center of each.
Fill muffin cups two-thirds full with remaining batter. Bake at
400° for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted 1 in. from the
edge comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to
a wire rack. Brush tops with butter. Combine sugar and cinnamon;
dip tops of muffins in mixture. Serve warm.

Yield: 1 dozen.
