Step 1:
How to bake muffins in paper molds? Prepare all ingredients. Use wheat flour of the highest grade, eggs of category C1, kefir can be replaced with homemade yogurt, you can choose any jam: cherry, strawberry, apricot, orange and others.
Step 2:
In the bowl in which you will knead the dough, sift wheat flour through a sieve together with baking powder. Due to sifting, the flour will be filled with oxygen, which will make the dough more tender and soft, and it will also remove unnecessary impurities and garbage cans that may be in this product. Add sugar to the sifted ingredients and mix.
Step 3:
Take a smaller container and combine kefir, chicken egg and vegetable oil in it, mix. You do not need to beat the mass, just mix everything until smooth.
Step 4:
Put the resulting liquid mass into a bowl with a dry mixture. With a wooden spoon, knead the mass with quick movements. You need to knead quickly, but carefully, so that excessive gluten does not form in the dough. Smoothness of the dough is not necessary to achieve, because then the finished muffins will turn out solid. The finished dough should be loose and slightly lumpy.
Step 5:
Place paper soft molds in a mold with round recesses, this will allow you to shape the muffins. If you use solid paper forms, then you do not need to strengthen them additionally. Put some dough into paper molds. The dough should completely cover the bottom of the molds.
Step 6:
Make indentations in the center of the dough, you can use a spoon, or you can just use a finger dipped in water. Put the jam in the recess (I have orange).
Step 7:
Cover the jam again with the dough almost level with the paper molds on top.
Step 8:
Bake the muffins in a preheated 180oC oven for 20-25 minutes. The duration of baking depends on the size of your molds, the temperature and the design of your oven. During baking, the muffins will rise and turn brown.
Step 9:
Remove the finished muffins from the oven, let them cool down a little, decorate to your liking and serve with tea.

In order for the oven to have time to heat up to the desired temperature, turn it on in advance (10-20 minutes before the start of cooking).

If you don't want to add baking powder to the dough, you can replace it with soda. The proportions will be as follows: 1 teaspoon of baking powder = ½ teaspoon of soda + ¼ teaspoon of table vinegar. If the recipe specifies less / more baking powder than 1 tsp, the proportions of soda and vinegar will also be less / more than indicated, be careful.

Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use useful information about the features of ovens !
