Peach Passion Muffins

For this week's breakfast muffins, I reduced down about a cup of passion fruit juice in a saucepan, then added a slurry of water and cornstarch to turn it into a gel. I made the muffin batter (sans honey and water) and spooned half the batter into the muffin tin. Then I poured in the passion fruit gel, topped it with the rest of the batter, and then pushed some chopped peaches into the top.

The result is a little odd texturally - the muffins are a little dry, and the gel is a little gooey. If I try this again, I think I'll still make the batter and gel separately, but then fold them together to try to get the gel swirled through the batter before putting it in the muffin tin.
