Pour batter into the baking pan and smooth into an even layer. Dollop jam over the top of the pancake. Use the back of a spoon or toothpick to swirl the jam and create a marbled pattern. Transfer baking pan to the oven and let bake, approx. 15 - 20 min. Brush remaining melted butter over the top then broil for another 1 - 2 min. Let cool slightly then cut into squares. Serve warm with maple syrup, if desired. Enjoy!
