Swirl and fill
  1. Pour half the batter into the baking dish, drop spoonfuls of strawberry jam on top, then swirl gently.
  2. Pour the remaining batter over top.

Notes

For the cleanest jam swirl, place the jam in small spoonfuls and swirl with a light touch so it streaks instead of fully mixing in. Store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 3 days; rewarm gently in the microwave or enjoy cold. Freezing isn’t recommended because the jam texture can soften after thawing. Dietary swap: use a plant-based protein powder and milk alternative (like oat or soy) for an easy dairy-free version.
