CORNIEST CORN MUFFINS



Corniest Corn Muffins image

These muffins are flat, firm-topped and cheerfully yellow; with an old-fashioned texture - grainy with small holes running through the crumb - and a wholesome, straight-from the farm flavor - they're tangy from the buttermilk and sweet from both the cornmeal (try to find stone-ground) and the corn kernels.

Time 40m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal, preferably stone-ground
6 tablespoons sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg (optional)
1 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3 tablespoons corn oil
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
1 cup corn kernels (add up to 1/3 cup more if you'd like) - fresh, frozen or canned (in which case, they should be drained and patted dry)

Steps:

  • Getting ready: Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter or spray the 12 molds in a regular-size muffin tin or fit the molds with paper muffin cups. Alternatively, use a silicone muffin pan, which needs neither greasing nor paper cups. Place the muffin pan on a baking sheet.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg, if you're using it. In a large glass measuring cup or another bowl, whisk the buttermilk, melted butter, oil, egg and yolk together until well blended. Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ingredients and, with the whisk or a rubber spatula, gently but quickly stir to blend. Don't worry about being thorough - the batter will be lumpy and that's just the way it should be. Stir in the corn kernels. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
  • Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a thin knife inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean. Transfer the pan to a rack and cool 5 minutes before carefully removing each muffin from its mold.

RICH AND BUTTERY CORN MUFFINS



Rich and Buttery Corn Muffins image

Made with plenty of melted butter and sour cream, these golden, lightly sweet corn muffins are moist, rich and delicately crumbly. If you can find coarsely ground cornmeal (as opposed the fine stuff that's on most supermarket shelves), you'll also get deep corn flavor and a pleasantly grainy texture. Serve these warm from the oven, slathered with even more butter, or halved and toasted under the broiler to crisp the surface. They'll even keep for a few days if you store them in the fridge, and freeze perfectly for up to a month.

Time 40m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup/255 grams unsalted butter (2 sticks), melted and cooled, plus more for greasing the pan
2 cups/240 grams coarse or stone-ground cornmeal
1 1/2 cups/190 grams all-purpose flour
2/3 cup/165 grams granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup/240 milliliters sour cream or whole-milk Greek yogurt
1/2 cup/120 milliliters whole milk
2 large eggs, at room temperature
Demerara sugar, as needed
Softened butter, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees, and generously butter the cups and tops of a muffin tin. (The muffins will overflow, and those crisp edges are delicious.)
  • In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together melted butter, sour cream, milk and eggs. Fold butter mixture into dry ingredients, then scoop batter into muffin tin (it will be very full). Sprinkle each muffin top with Demerara sugar.
  • Bake until golden on the edges, 18 to 22 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove from muffin tin and cool to room temperature. Serve with even more butter.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, sweet corn. This will give your muffins the best flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups almost to the top. This will help the muffins rise properly.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help them to hold their shape.

Conclusion:

These Massachusetts corn muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. You can enjoy them on their own or with your favorite toppings, such as butter, jam, or honey. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying snack, give these corn muffins a try!
