Ingredients

For The Muffins
2 cups plain flour (maida)
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2/3 cup castor sugar or powdered sugar
3/4 tsp cinnamon (dalchini)
1/3 cup oil
1 to 3 tbsp warm water
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 tsp strawberry jam

Other Ingredients
melted butter
powdered sugar for rolling
cinnamon (dalchini) powder for rolling

For Garnish
3 tbsp jam

Method

In dry bowl, sieve all the dry ingredients (the first five ingredients) and mix well with a fork. Keep aside.
In the other bowl, add all the wet ingredients except the strawberry jam (the next four ingredients) and whisk together lightly. Keep aside.
Now pour the mixed liquid into the dry ingredients gradually and fold everything with a light hand till just mixed. Mix only till just combined.
Spoon a heaped teaspoonful of batter into greased muffin pans/ or pans lined with cupcake liners.
Using the wrong end of a spoon, make a small depression in the centre of the batter.
Do not make these depressions too deep or the jam may leak out.
Fill each depression with about 1/3 tsp of strawberry jam. Cover this with remaining muffin batter.
Bake at 180°C (360°F) for 25 minutes till light brown on top or insert the knife into the side of the muffin if it comes out clean the muffin is done.
Cool on a rack.
For a very "doughnut" feel, brush the tops of the warm muffins with melted butter and then roll them in a mixture of powdered sugar and cinnamon powder.
Garnish with little jam at the top.

Tip

Remember these are muffins, so over mixing of the mixture will result into a tough tasteless muffins. A lumpy batter, showing slight streaks of flour is fine.
