Cupcakes with jam
Description
The recipe won't take much time. The cupcakes have a texture very similar to sponge cake. Use thick jam with fruit pulp; strawberry, blackcurrant, or apple jam work best. Jelly-like jam is not suitable, as it will melt and be absorbed into the baked goods. If desired, dust the tops of the cupcakes with powdered sugar. Serve with tea, coffee, or a glass of milk, or take them along on a trip or to work as a snack. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
