– 1 cup milk
– 1/4 cup vegetable oil

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
3. In a separate microwave-safe bowl, heat the peanut butter for about 30 seconds until it’s softened and easier to mix.
4. Add the softened peanut butter, milk, vegetable oil, and egg into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
5. Fill each muffin cup halfway with the batter.
6. Spoon a dollop (about 1 teaspoon) of strawberry jam into the center of each muffin cup.
7. Top each muffin cup with the remaining batter, covering the jam completely.
