This recipe is FANTASTIC!

I was in a cheesecake mood and I thought to myself , “Self; what if I made this into a muffin”

TADA!

You can PRINT or SAVE this recipe at the bottom of this post! :)

You can make ANY flavour you wish (as you can see by the raspberry one on the right!)

The key to making this recipe outstanding is the ingredients you use.  The filling that I use is my homemade Cherry preserves with whole cherries in them.  If you can’t find or make this you can use good quality jams or pie filling!

YUM!

 Sour Cherry Preserve made on our farm!
