GREEN ONION AND SESAME CORN MUFFINS



Green Onion and Sesame Corn Muffins image

Categories     Bread     Dairy     Onion     Side     Bake     Vegetarian     Bon Appétit     Kidney Friendly     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter
1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup all purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup sesame seeds, toasted
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg, beaten to blend
Additional sesame seeds, untoasted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line 12 muffin cups with foil muffin liners. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy small skillet over medium heat. Add green onions and sauté until beginning to soften, about 1 minute. Add remaining 4 tablespoons butter and stir until just melted. Remove from heat.
  • Mix cornmeal, flour, sugar, 1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds, baking powder, salt and baking soda in large bowl. Make well in center. Add buttermilk, egg and onion mixture to well. Mix into dry ingredients.
  • Divide batter among prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle with additional sesame seeds. Bake muffins until golden and firm to touch, about 20 minutes. Transfer to rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cornmeal: Use a finely ground cornmeal for a tender muffin. Coarse cornmeal will result in a grittier muffin.
  • Use fresh green onions: Fresh green onions will give your muffins the best flavor. If you don't have fresh green onions, you can use chopped yellow onion, but the flavor will be less pronounced.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: This will help the muffins to rise and brown properly.
  • Let the muffins cool before serving: This will help them to set and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

These green onion cornmeal 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. Whether you like them plain or with your favorite toppings, these muffins are sure to please everyone at the table.
