muffin tin with cooking spray.
Place flour, 3 tablespoons (45 ml) granulated sugar, baking powder, baking
soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir to blend. Place egg in a small bowl
and stir until smooth. Add milk and yogurt to beaten egg and stir until
smooth, then stir in vanilla. Add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients
and whisk until just smooth – do not overmix – the muffins can become
tough and rubbery. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin
cups. Top each in the centre with about
3

marmalade. Sprinkle muffins with the sugar/cinnamon mixture.
Bake in toaster oven for 18 to 20 minutes, rotating the muffin tin after
approximately 9 minutes. Turn out onto a rack and cool for at least
5 to 10 minutes (the jam will be hot enough to burn) before serving.
