Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and prep muffin tin with muffin cups

Whisk flour, baking powder and salt together and set aside

In a separate bowl, whisk together egg and sugar until thick, then add melted butter in 2 additions whisking to combine after each addition. Add sour cream, whisking just to combine.

Pour wet mixture into dry mixture and fold with a rubber spatula just to combine (there may be small spots of flour remaining and batter should be thick)

Using a small spoon add a little batter to each muffin cup, then top each with Jam, repeat this process once more, then top each cup with the remaining batter

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffin comes out clean

While the muffins are baking make the topping

Mix 1 tablespoon of Jam into ½ cup of sugar, then make a thick simple syrup in a small saucepan by simmering ¼ cup of sugar with ¼ cup of water

When muffins are done and cooled, one at a time, brush top with simple syrup and dip the top into sugar and jam mixture and Enjoy!
