Categories     side-dish

Time 25m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 14

Nonstick cooking spray, for greasing the muffin tin
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 large egg
2 cups self-rising cornmeal mix, such as Martha White
Pinch of salt
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the cornbread muffins: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease a regular-size muffin tin. Mix the buttermilk, vegetable oil and egg in a bowl. Add the cornmeal mix and salt and stir. The batter should be pourable. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling the cups three-quarters full. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. For the Cajun butter: Mix the butter, brown sugar, chili powder, oregano, cayenne, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a bowl. Spread on the corn muffins.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn kernels: Fresh corn kernels give the muffins a sweeter, more flavorful taste. If you don't have fresh corn kernels, you can use frozen or canned corn kernels, but be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the muffins in a hot oven: Baking the muffins in a hot oven will help them rise and brown properly. Preheat the oven to 400°F before baking the muffins.
  • Let the muffins cool before serving: Letting the muffins cool before serving will help them hold their shape and prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Buttery cornbread muffins are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking.
