Imagine my horror just a few minutes ago. I love participating in my weekly baking group Tusdays with Dorie , but made a BIG error with today's choice. Oh, my delightful corn muffins turned out fantastic, perfect amount of sweetness, not dry at all. No, my big error was that I made the WRONG corn muffin! I should have made the corn and pepper muffins on the next page! So, instead of baking another round of muffins I am calling an end to my baking day. The corniest muffins are just fantastic, and with a dollop of honey butter and a big bowl of chili a perfect meal. To check out the recipe for Savory corn and pepper muffins travel over to Ezra Poundcake, a fun and delightful food blog.
How to goof
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
6 tablespoons sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Pinch of fresh grated nutmeg
1 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 egg
1 egg yolk
1 cup corn kernels (I used the entire can)
Preheat oven to 400
Prepare muffin pans
In a large bowl whisk together all the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients, excluding the corn. Pour liquid ingredients over dry ingredients and mix with a rubber spatula to blend. The batter will be lumpy. Stir in the corn kernels. Divide batter evenly among the muffin cups.
Bake 15-18 minutes or until the tops are golden and the center of the muffin comes clean when tester is inserted.
Enjoy with butter our make some honey butter.
How funny! You're the second person to do this!
But they look great anyways ~
