  30-60 minutes

ingredients

1 cup sugar
1/3 cup oil
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup fruit jam (we used strawberry-rhubarb)

directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place 12 papers in cupcake tin and set aside.

Stir together sugar, oil, eggs, milk and lemon extract. Stir together flour, baking powder and salt, and add to liquid mixture. Mix together briefly.

Place large scoop (about 1/8 cup) of batter in bottom of each cup. Place one teaspoon of jam on top and follow with another scoop (about 1/8 cup) of batter, completely covering the jam. Bake for 20 minutes.

cook's notes

Inspired by Seinfeld's Lemon Raspberry Cupcake Recipe that contains beet and yellow squash puree - here's a recipe with a surprise - but it's not deceptive. This surprise will bring a smile to your kids' faces when they bite into the middle of each sweet treat. And if you have it on hand, perhaps you want to try throwing in a half cup of yellow squash puree. Or not.
