Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.

- In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

- Make a small well in the center of each muffin and fill it with a spoonful of jam.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
