- 2 teaspoons
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon

- Apricot chunks
- 1 cup, fresh or canned
- Apricot preserves

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.

- In a separate bowl, mix together the melted butter, milk, beaten egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the apricot preserves and apricot chunks, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full to allow for rising.

- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
