  In a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder,and salt. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture. Mix just until combined.

  Spread two thirds of the dough in the prepared pan, using a knife to spread it evenly. Spread the jam evenly over the dough. Drop small globs of the remaining dough evenly over the jam.
