Eggless Blueberry Preserve Bundt Muffins

Easy, 15 minutes jam/preserve muffins which are 100% eggless and perfect breakfast recipe.

Eggless Jam Shortcake Swirls#SundayFunday

These shortcakes are so delicious and buttery. To make these I used aluminum muffin mold, would suggest that you use a silicon muffin/cupcake molds to make these. While un molding these tend to break. Felt sorry for not using my silicon cupcake molds to make these delicious shortcakes, no doubt the broken ones my hubby enjoyed. The good ones I took for our Hi Tea Party with friends.

Makes 13 -14 Shortcake Swirls
Ingredients
200 Grams Butter - I used salted butter
75 Grams Icing Sugar
220 Grams All Purpose Flour
2 Tablespoons Jam or as required
½ Teaspoon Vanilla Essence
Icing sugar as required for dusting - optional

Method

Grease silicon cupcake molds and place them in the muffin tray (do not use liners).  

Beat butter and icing sugar well until creamy, stir in the flour, mix gently. Refrigerate this batter for at least 20 minutes. In the meantime preheat the oven to 180°C.   

Pour the mixture into a large piping bag with a large piping nozzle. Pipe swirls of mixture into the molds. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes ( depending on how many swirls you make into the molds).    

Once the they are golden, take them out of the oven and keep them on a wire rack to cool.

Un mold each shortcake gently, sprinkle with icing sugar, put a small spoon drop of jam into center of each.   

Serve with tea or coffee. These got over in one go for our party.
