Best 7 Feather Light Corn Muffins Recipes

FEATHER LIGHT CORN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour 8 muffin cups or line them with paper liners.
• In a medium bowl, sift the dry ingredients together. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together. Add 1/3 of the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, then 1/3 of the melted butter, and stir gently just until incorporated. Repeat with the remaining dry ingredients and melted butter, being careful not to over-mix; there may be a little flour not mixed in at the end. Use an ice-cream scoop or large spoon to fill the muffin cups half full. Bake until risen, light golden brown, and firm to the touch, about 15 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes in the pan.
• Molasses Butter: Cream the ingredients in a food processor or an electric mixer until fully combined. Strawberry Butter: Clean and hull the strawberries. Place all of the ingredients in a food processor and cream until fully combined.
• To serve, spoon a dollop of jam, or spread the compound butters onto the top of the muffins.

In a separate bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, and eggs. With the mixer on the lowest speed, pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and stir until they are just blended.

EDNA LEWIS'S CORN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400. Generously grease the wells of the muffin pan with 2 tablespoons of lard or butter, leaving the extra fat in the wells. In a mixing bowl, sift together the corn flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder.
• When the oven is hot, place the muffin tin inside to preheat. Meanwhile, stir the buttermilk into the dry ingredients and mix well, then stir in the egg and 2 tablespoons melted butter. When the muffin pan is very hot (if using butter to grease, the butter should have just stopped sizzling), carefully remove it, and quickly fill each well with about 3 ounces of batter. Bake for 17-20 minutes, rotating once, until a toothpick comes out clean and the edges of the muffins are golden brown.
• Let the pan cool for 2 minutes on a rack, then remove the muffins. (If necessary, use a paring knife to release them.) Serve muffins hot, with butter.
