Savory Cornbread Muffins With Jalapeños and Corn image

Cornbread bakes nicely in a muffin tin. I've added corn, chilies and cheese to this cornbread. With soup and a salad, it makes a great lunchtime muffin.

Time 25m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup yellow cornmeal, preferably organic stone-ground
1 cup whole-wheat flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage or 1 teaspoon rubbed sage
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup canola oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 cup corn kernels
2 tablespoons minced jalapeños
1/2 cup grated Cheddar or Monterey Jack (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees with the rack positioned in the upper third. Oil or butter muffin tins.
  • Place the cornmeal in a bowl, and sift in the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Stir in the sage. In a separate bowl, beat together the eggs, buttermilk, oil and honey. Whisk or stir the cornmeal mixture into the liquid mixture. Do not beat; a few lumps are fine, but make sure there is no flour at the bottom of the bowl. Fold in the corn kernels, minced jalapeño and optional cheese.
  • Spoon into muffin cups, filling them to just below the top (about 4/5 full). Place in the oven, and bake 20 to 25 minutes until lightly browned and well risen.
