Good morning! It’s Annie from Annie’s Noms here!
I have a really great recipe to share with you all today 🙂
I absolutely adore doughnuts, but quite simply I don’t have time to knead dough and wait for it to prove before frying it these days, so these are just perfect! I also love muffins, there’s nothing better than a fresh homemade muffin for breakfast, warmed slightly and spread with butter…. bliss.
These are the perfect marriage between everyone’s favourite fried dessert and muffins. It also basically means you can eat doughnuts for breakfast…
Not that I ever do that.
Moist and soft vanilla muffins, these babies are rolled in sugar and then filled with your favourite jam! I chose strawberry, but they would be good with raspberry, blackcurrant…. you name it!
In fact I may make them again and make them cinnamon muffins and fill them with apples…. ooooh that does sound like a plan!
So anyways, you should make these doughnut muffins. Or as Starbucks call them “Duffins” although I think that sounds odd.
Better than Muffnuts though…
Enjoy!
Moist vanilla muffins, filled with fruit jam and rolled in sugar - the perfect doughnut, but in muffin form!
Ingredients
- For the muffins:
- 1/2 stick (56g) unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup vegetable/sunflower oil
- 1/3 cup caster/superfine sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2tsp vanilla extract
- 2 and 2/3 cups plain flour
- 1 and 1/2tsp baking powder
- 1/4tsp baking soda
- 1 cup milk (I used skim)
- For the filling and topping:
- 1/2 stick (56g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup caster/superfine sugar
- 1 cup (around 12oz) jam of your choice (I used strawberry)

Stephanie,
Thanks for stopping by! Yeah, Annie takes great pics!
Thanks for the recipe. Yes, muffins sounds much nicer than duffins!
I’d still eat them if they were called Duffins!
I like muffins, and “Duffins” sound and look fab! Great pictures, thanks for sharing.
thanks for stopping by!
These look amazing! The jelly and crunchy sugar topping are so reminiscent to a an actual jelly doughnut. My nephews and nieces love jelly doughnuts, and I think they’d love these too!
anything with the crunchy sugar topping has to be good, huh?!?!
Yum Yum YUMMM!! Stopping by from the Pin-Me Party- these look so good, I think I’ll whip up some this afternoon!

Are these addictive or what! Thanks for linking up to What’s Cookin’ Wednesday!
I think this has got to be one of the most delicious looking and sounding muffin recipes I have ever seen. I could definitely start my day with this goodness and I bet my kids wouldn’t be mad about starting their day with it either. 😉 Thank you for sharing and for linking up to Thrifty Thursday.
These are just wonderful!!
Would be perfect for our upcoming holiday
