Recipe Notes

from Australia’s Best Recipes team

Frozen blueberry can be used. When making lemon muffins, half fill the muffin holes with mix then place a dollop of this jam and a small piece of cream cheese and top with more muffin batter. Bake as usual, serve warm and enjoy the cream cheese and jam oozing out when you take a bite. Also nice as a filling for sponge cakes, with cream.
