Preheat over to 350 degrees, line your cupcake pan with cupcake liners.

Put both flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and whisk to sift.

Put butter and sugar in a mixer and start beating. Add eggs one at a time.

Add the flour mixer in three batches with the buttermilk in between. Then add the vanilla extract. Scoop your batter into liners with an ice cream scoop. Bake 18 to 20 minutes. Check often, don't overbake. Remove from oven and let cool. Once cooled - use an apple corer and core out the middle of the cupcake.

Put the heavy whipping cream into a bowl with whisk attached and add confectioners sugar and whip until medium stiff peaks. Add strawberry jam and whip until blended. Put in pastry bag and fill cupcakes.

More ways to dress up your Strawberry Cupcakes
Adding fruits and toppings to the top of your cupcakes can change it up a bit and really bring out the flavors.
You can slice up a strawberry on top or maybe even dip it in chocolate to add a little pizzazz to your cupcakes. If you want to be really creative you can drizzle some balsamic vinegar over your cupcakes with a 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar and brown sugar mixed.
