Brush six-count muffin pan with melted butter to lightly grease.
Place the flour and caster sugar in a large bowl. Add the butter, milk and egg, and stir until well combined.
Spoon two-thirds of the mixture evenly among the prepared pans. Spoon 3 teaspoons of conserve into the centre of each pan. Top with the remaining muffin mixture and smooth the surface.

Set aside in the pans for 15 minutes to cool slightly.

Divide muffins among serving plates. Serve with a dollop of cinnamon cream dusted with extra cinnamon.
