Categories     Dinner

Time 40m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

½ stick unsalted butter, softened
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 cups blue cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
3 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 ½ cups buttermilk
4 large eggs
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
½ cup honey
1 cup frozen corn

Steps:

  • Make the herbed honey butter: In a medium bowl, combine the butter, honey, parsley, thyme, and salt. Using a rubber spatula, mix all the ingredients until smooth and incorporated, about 3 minutes. Scoop the butter onto a piece of plastic wrap and roll into a log, then wrap tightly. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight.
  • Make the cornbread muffins: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and honey until smooth.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the buttermilk mixture until fully combined, then add the frozen corn and mix to incorporate. The batter will be lumpy.
  • Divide the batter between the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ of the way.
  • Bake the muffins for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are just slightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Serve the muffins warm with the herbed honey butter.
  • Enjoy

CORN MUFFINS WITH HONEY BUTTER



Corn Muffins with Honey Butter image

There's an interesting country story behind this recipe. I've worked at our local Farm Bureau office for 15 years. A friend on our women's committee developed it to give people new ideas for using farm commodities. I especially like preparing these muffins for my family on a winter night-along with a big pot of chili, they make for a very hearty meal! My husband and I have a farrow-to-finish hog operation here on the farm where he was born. We also grow several crops. One son farms with us, we have a grown daughter and our other son just graduated from high school.

CHEESY CORNBREAD MUFFINS WITH HOT HONEY BUTTER



Cheesy Cornbread Muffins With Hot Honey Butter image

Smoky chipotle takes these muffins into savory territory, but this recipe can be used purely as a blueprint: Want them a bit sweeter? Lose the minced chipotle chiles, and increase the sugar by a couple of tablespoons. Need them to hold up to a heavily spiced pot of chili? Double the chipotles en adobo, add 1/4 cup minced red onion and a dash of ground cumin, onion powder or garlic, perhaps. Whatever you add, don't overmix: Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined (a few lumps are O.K.) before folding in the cheese for muffins that are rich but not dense.

Time 40m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), softened
3 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 teaspoons chipotle en adobo sauce
Unsalted butter, for greasing the pan
1 1/4 cups/195 grams medium cornmeal
1 cup/130 grams all-purpose flour
1/4 cup/50 grams granulated sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons black pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick)
2/3 cup/160 milliliters whole milk
1/2 cup/120 milliliters sour cream
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons minced chiles en adobo (optional)
1 cup/115 grams grated sharp white Cheddar (about 3 ounces)
3 tablespoons very thinly sliced scallions or chives
Sliced jalapeño, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare the hot honey butter: In a small bowl, stir 1/2 cup/1 stick softened butter with the honey and chipotle en adobo sauce. Refrigerate while muffins bake.
  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees, and generously grease the cups of a 12-cup muffin tin.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pepper and salt.
  • In a small saucepan, melt the remaining 1/2 cup/1 stick softened butter over low heat. In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, sour cream, eggs, melted butter and the minced chipotle chiles, if using.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and stir using a rubber spatula until almost combined but still a little lumpy. Fold in the Cheddar and scallions, and stir until just combined.
  • Transfer the muffin batter in 1/4-cup portions to the prepared muffin tin. Top each muffin with a jalapeño slice, if desired, and bake until the tops are golden and the muffins are cooked through, about 18 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes in the muffin tins before carefully transferring to a wire rack, running a knife around the rims to release the muffins, if necessary. Serve warm or at room temperature, with honey butter.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Always use fresh cornmeal, buttermilk, and honey for the best flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest: Letting the batter rest for 15 minutes before baking will allow the cornmeal to absorb the liquid and produce a more tender muffin.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: A high oven temperature will help the muffins rise and create a crispy crust.
  • Make the honey butter in advance: You can make the honey butter up to 3 days in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Bring it to room temperature before serving.

Conclusion:

These blue corn muffins with honey butter are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. The blue cornmeal gives the muffins a unique flavor and color, and the honey butter is the perfect finishing touch.
