Enjoy a burst of berry goodness with the very first bite of these delicious little muffins. Make them for breakfast or package them up to share with neighbors or family; we guarantee they will be appreciated! Ricotta cheese is an unexpected ingredient in these muffins, and is the secret to keeping them incomparably moist and tender. This recipe is versatile and can be made with any sort of preserves that you like or have on hand. Change up the recipe every time you bake by varying the filling. Try strawberry or blackberry preserves, or even orange marmalade.
