About the Recipe:  Using a Scratch Made Master Mix makes baking muffins easier. Master Mix is a combination of fresh ingredients that can be used to prepare savory as well as sweet muffins. I loved the idea that I could add or subtract different flavor combinations. It was fun to serve two different variations that I made from one muffin recipe. The best part was that in 30 minutes, they were on the table.

Jam-Filled Muffins – Fill each muffin cup with 1/3 batter.  Drop 1 teaspoon jam or fruit spread on top of batter.  Fill each cup with another 1/3 cup batter to cover the filling.

*Savory Fruit or Pepper Jam Muffins: I prepared half of the recipe for provolone cheese muffins. Following the directions for Jam-Filled Muffins, I spooned one teaspoon of fig spread in some of them and one teaspoon red pepper relish in the rest. Cover the filling with batter. I found that the thicker fillings worked better than thin jelly.

Upside Down Muffins – Melt 6 Tablespoons butter in small saucepan with 6 Tablespoons brown sugar until combined; stir in chopped pecans as desired. Evenly spread about 1 Tablespoon pecan topping in bottom of each greased muffin cup. Batter fill cups 2/3 full. After baking, wait 5 to 10 minutes; turn muffins upside down to remove from pan onto a cookie sheet. Let rest 2 to 3 minutes. Remove muffin pan. Replace any loose pecans.
