How to Make Honey Vanilla Jam Bites
Step 1: Prepare the batter
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease your mini cake or muffin molds.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, brown sugar, and honey until light and slightly fluffy.
Add vanilla extract and olive oil, then mix well until smooth.
Step 2: Add dry ingredients
Sift in the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gently fold everything together until you get a smooth batter. Do not overmix.
Step 3: Bake
Spoon the batter into prepared molds, filling them about 3/4 full.
Bake for 18–20 minutes or until the tops turn golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Let them cool slightly before removing from the molds.

Enjoy warm with tea, coffee, or as a simple sweet treat anytime.
