The Pioneer Woman: PB&J Struesel Muffins

As you might have gathered with the choice of recipes I decide to try, I really like The Pioneer Woman. I think that she is an intelligent, talented woman and I enjoy her blog posts.


This one was a simple recipe, and while it was very rich, I will make it again in the future. I think though that only one half an English Muffin is needed per adult, unless they have a very sweet tooth.

PB&J Streusel Muffins

Ingredients

1/2 stick Cold Salted Butter
1/2 cup Flour

1/2 cup Brown Sugar

2 Tablespoons Oats (Quick Or Old-fashioned)

Dash Of Salt

4 whole Whole Wheat English Muffins

1/4 cup Peanut Butter

1/4 cup Jelly Or Jam Of Your Choice

Method

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. In a bowl, use a pastry cutter to cut together the butter, flour, brown sugar, oats, and salt until the mixture is slightly crumbly. Sprinkle in a couple of tablespoons of water if it seems too dry.
Split the muffins and spread on a thin layer of peanut butter, followed by jelly. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the 8 muffins and pop it in the oven for 10 minutes. Turn up the heat to 350 and bake for another couple of minutes or until slightly golden on top.
