JAM-FILLED ALMOND MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F Coat 12 muffin cups with cooking spray.
• Whisk whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
• Whisk eggs and brown sugar in a medium bowl until smooth. Add buttermilk, orange juice, oil and vanilla; whisk to blend. Add to the dry ingredients and mix with a rubber spatula just until moistened.
• Scoop half the batter into the prepared pan. Mix jam and almond extract; drop a generous teaspoonful into the center of each muffin. Spoon on the remaining batter, filling each muffin cup completely. Sprinkle with almonds, then sugar.
• Bake the muffins until the tops are golden brown and spring back when touched lightly, 15 to 25 minutes. Loosen edges and turn muffins out onto a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
