Bleeding Heart Muffins

Simple muffins from scratch with a surprise filling. they are not too sweet. the original recipe also suggests substituting another fruit, or steamed carrots, for the plum filling. i tried it with blueberries, most of them stayed in the middle but they rose to the top on a few of the muffins. you could also use jam. for zwt7, from ricettedalmondo.it
