CORNBREAD MUFFINS



Cornbread Muffins image

Ubiquitous on southern tables, cornbread is a versatile side dish that can be cut into pieces from a cast-iron skillet or, as done in this recipe, portioned as individual muffins. This recipe by Alexander Smalls, a chef, author, restaurateur and former opera singer, uses finely ground cornmeal and two types of milk to create a savory batter, which also gets a kick from coriander. Fresh corn kernels add texture to the dense quickbread. Serve warm alongside a spread of vegetables or a meat dish, with plenty of butter.

These light-tasting cornmeal muffins are coated with grated parmesan cheese after they are baked. Serve them with a bowl of chili or hearty soup. Taken from the "Quick, Healthy and Delicious Cooking" cookbook by BH&G. Updated: After one reviewer brought to my attention that using larger muffin tins resulted in very small "caps", I mentioned that I tend to use smaller muffin tins for this recipe. You of course, can decide which you prefer.

Creamed Corn, Parsley & Bacon on Muffins image

This is a simple & tasty brekky or lunch. I found this in a healthy heart cookbook. Tastes just as great on leftover damper instead of muffins too.

Provided by Mandy

Categories     Breakfast

Time 7m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 slices bacon, chopped
440 g canned creamed corn
1 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped
4 English muffins, toasted
butter (optional)

Steps:

  • Fry bacon in a non-stick pan until crisp; drain.
  • Heat corn in a pan over a low heat, add in bacon & parsley.
  • Spread muffins with butter and top with corn mixture.
  • Serve garnished with extra parsley if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cornmeal. Use a medium or coarse-grind cornmeal for a heartier muffin with a more pronounced corn flavor. Fine-grind cornmeal will result in a more tender muffin.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, which will make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use fresh baking powder. Baking powder loses its potency over time, so it's important to use fresh baking powder for light and fluffy muffins.
  • Preheat the oven. Preheat the oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before you start mixing the batter. This will help the muffins rise evenly.
  • Fill the muffin cups to the top. Don't be afraid to fill the muffin cups to the top. The muffins will rise and fill out as they bake.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time will vary depending on the size of the muffins, so start checking them a few minutes before the end of the baking time.

Conclusion:

Parmesan cornbread muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are perfect for potlucks, picnics, and holiday gatherings. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of these flavorful muffins that will be a hit with everyone.
