Categories     Dinner

Time 40m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

½ stick unsalted butter, softened
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 cups blue cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
3 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 ½ cups buttermilk
4 large eggs
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
½ cup honey
1 cup frozen corn

Steps:

  • Make the herbed honey butter: In a medium bowl, combine the butter, honey, parsley, thyme, and salt. Using a rubber spatula, mix all the ingredients until smooth and incorporated, about 3 minutes. Scoop the butter onto a piece of plastic wrap and roll into a log, then wrap tightly. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight.
  • Make the cornbread muffins: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and honey until smooth.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the buttermilk mixture until fully combined, then add the frozen corn and mix to incorporate. The batter will be lumpy.
  • Divide the batter between the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ of the way.
  • Bake the muffins for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are just slightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Serve the muffins warm with the herbed honey butter.
  • Enjoy

BLUE CORNBREAD



BLUE CORNBREAD image

Categories     Bread     Side     Bake     Vegetarian     Corn

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/4 cups flour
1 3/4 cups blue cornmeal ( or yellow)
1 cup sugar ( or less)
1/3 cup pine nuts
3/4 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 cups milk
3/4 cups vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk
11/2 cups frozen corn kernels, thawed & drained

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Butter 13x9x2" glass baking dish. Whisk flour, cornmeal, sugar, pine nuts, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl to blend. Whisk milk, vegetable oil, eggs and buttermilk in medium bowl to blend. Add liquids to dry ingredients and whisk to blend. Fold in corn. Pour batter into prepared dish. Bake until tester comes out clean, about 40 min. Cut into squares and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cornmeal: Fresh cornmeal will give your blue cornbread a more vibrant color and better flavor. If you can't find fresh cornmeal, you can use store-bought cornmeal, but make sure it's finely ground.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your blue cornbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a hot oven: A hot oven will help your blue cornbread rise and cook evenly. Preheat your oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before you start baking.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to tell if your blue cornbread is done baking.
  • Let the blue cornbread cool before slicing: This will help prevent it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Blue cornbread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like it sweet or savory, there's a blue cornbread recipe out there for you. So next time you're looking for a new bread to try, give blue cornbread a try. You won't be disappointed!
