OLD FASHIONED SWEET CORN MUFFINS



Old Fashioned Sweet Corn Muffins image

My husband and I were having this long discussion about corn bread of all things. He like jalapeno corn breads and other savory corn breads. While on the other hand I like sweet corn bread.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 c all purpose flour
1 c yellow corn meal
1 c sugar
3 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 egg
1 1/3 c milk
1/3 c vegetable oil

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400'F
  • 2. Grease; or line with baking cups, one muffin pan.
  • 3. In a large mixing bowl combine flour, corn meal, salt, sugar and baking powder.
  • 4. Slowly mix in eggs, milk and vegetable oil. Beat with a hand mixer on high for 30 seconds.
  • 5. Let sit for 4 minutes before pouring out into muffin pan. (this waiting time will help the muffins crown a bit better in the end.)
  • 6. Pour out into muffin pan evenly.
  • 7. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Eat them cooled or hot. They are awesome hot with some butter! I ate them with caramel sauce later on and it was awesome!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor and texture of your muffins.
  • Make sure your baking powder and baking soda are fresh: Old baking powder and baking soda can result in flat or dense muffins.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full: This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature for a short amount of time: This will help the muffins rise quickly and evenly.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before frosting or serving: This will help the frosting set properly and prevent the muffins from becoming soggy.
