Semolina muffins with jam are tender, airy, and fragrant cupcakes that bring a sense of home comfort with every bite. The origins of this recipe trace back to European baking traditions where semolina is used to create a soft texture. Combined with sour milk kefir, it gains an amazing lightness. Melted margarine adds creamy depth of flavor, while fruit jam contributes pleasant sweetness and a bright accent. This dessert is perfect for cozy tea times or breakfasts and pairs wonderfully with fresh coffee or warm tea. Dusted with powdered sugar, these muffins not only please the eye but also provide delight to everyone who tries them.
