Prepare:
-Melt 60g (4 tbsp) of butter in the microwave (about 45 seconds)
-In a large bowl, mix butter, 2 eggs, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tsp vanilla, zest of an orange, and 1 cup milk (I used 1/3 cup vanilla yogurt and 2/3 cup milk) (I also made a batch that had about 1 tbsp of Milo - a drinking chocolate powder)
-Add in dried fruit, if you'd like (I added dried currants and cranberries - not too much)
-Preheat oven to 375F/180C
-Grease muffin pan
-Add a heaping tbsp of batter into the muffin pan
-Add 1/2 tsp or so of jam (I used blackberry) onto the batter, then cover with another 1/2-1 tbsp of batter. I also made 1 batch that had jam and peanut butter inside
-Let cool on a cooling rack, dust with icing sugar
Tips:
-The butter will coagulate/thicken when mixed with the milk and eggs. I don't know if that was supposed to happen... I tried to whisk it as smooth as possible and then add the flour right away and whisk a lot and it seemed to look like a pretty homogeneous mixture.
-You could substitute for the fruit (or add) nuts or chocolate chips. For the orange zest you could use nutmeg/cinnamon/clove combo for that flavor.
