1. I'm not a milk and cereal person, but I like my breakfast.
2. Mostly my boyfriend eats breakfast only if I make it for him.
3. We canned way, way too much jam.
It just so happens that our plan to give away jam as gifts, did not actually result in net less jam, because people kept giving us their jam in return. Hence, an overabundance of jam.
So, every week, I try to come up with something that will address all three problems. Eventually, I settled on baking bread for toast. I found a wonderful recipe over at Orangette, but bread requires planning, and somehow, we've gotten all the way to Tuesday with no time for bread until next weekend.
But I'm hungry when I wake up in the morning.
I've taken to reading Joy of Cooking on the couch when I get home, and while I don't have the ingredients to make fancy muffins, I do have jam. I took the regular muffin recipe from Joy of Cooking and filled the muffin cups half full, spooned some jam in, and put more muffin batter on top. They baked up really pretty.
