Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Yield Makes 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 17

Unsalted butter, softened, or vegetable oil cooking spray, for tin
1 cup flour
1 cup coarse yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/4 cup safflower oil
1/4 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
1/4 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3/4 teaspoon finely chopped jalapeno chile
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons grated white cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons caramelized onion
1 1/2 strips cooked bacon, broken into small pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly butter a 12-cup mini-muffin tin or coat with cooking spray. Whisk together flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Combine buttermilk, egg, and oil. Stir buttermilk mixture into flour mixture until combined. Divide batter into 3 batches (1 cup each), and stir a flavor combination into each.
  • Fill cups of muffin tin three-quarters full with 1 batch of batter. Bake until tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into centers comes out clean, about 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack, and let cool for 5 minutes. Turn out muffins from tin. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm or at room temperature. Muffins can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Tips:

  • Choose sweet mini corn: Smaller corns tend to be sweeter and more tender.
  • Cut the kernels off the cob: Use a sharp knife to cut the kernels off the cob, or you can also use a corn stripper.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro and basil add a burst of flavor to the corn bites.
  • Don’t overcook the corn: Overcooked corn will become tough and lose its sweetness.
  • Serve the corn bites warm: Corn bites are best served warm, straight out of the oven or air fryer.

Conclusion:

Sweet mini corn bites are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create these golden brown, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside bites that are sure to be a hit. Whether you’re hosting a party or just looking for a fun and tasty treat, these corn bites are sure to satisfy.
