Number Of Ingredients 14

Nonstick cooking spray, for the muffin tin
4 slices bacon, chopped
1 cup yellow cornmeal

Steps:

  • For the muffins: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     side-dish

Time 50m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 teaspoon hot sauce
8 ounces (about 8 slices) applewood-smoked bacon, cut into 1/3-inch pieces
1 1/3 cups buttermilk, at room temperature
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/3 cups yellow cornmeal (about 7 ounces)
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour (6 to 6 1/2 ounces)
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon fine salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 sticks chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
5 large scallions (green onions), chopped

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
  • In a large nonstick skillet, cook the bacon, over medium heat until crisp and brown. Transfer the bacon to paper towels; drain and cool.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, hot sauce and eggs. Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and pepper in a food processor. Drop in the cold butter cubes. Using on/off turns, blend until the butter is cut in finely and the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Pour the dry ingredients over the buttermilk mixture. Scatter the bacon and green onions over the batter. Using a thin, flexible spatula, fold the batter together, scraping up the liquids from the bottom each time and turning the bowl as you fold. Do not over-fold; some dry patches are fine. Using a rounded 1/3 cup of batter for each muffin, fill the paper liners.
  • Bake until puffed and browning at edges, and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Let the muffins stand 5 to 10 minutes. Twist each muffin in place to loosen the edges from the pan. Lift the muffins out onto a rack and cool.

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:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh corn and bacon give these muffins the best flavor. If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen corn that has been thawed and drained.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups almost full: This will help the muffins rise and give them a nice shape.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached: Overbaking will make the muffins dry.
  • Serve the muffins warm: These muffins are best when served warm from the oven. You can also store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze them for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

These bacon corn muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or side dish. They're perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
