BUTTERMILK CORNMEAL MUFFINS
These muffins seem to be a little moister than most cornmeal muffins. I think soaking the cornmeal in the buttermilk is what makes a difference. I always use finely ground cornmeal, but you can use the regular cornmeal if you like the grittier texture it provides. I always use butter, not margarine, a personal preference. I never use Splenda, but imagine it would work for those with dietary restrictions. I will sometimes add some toasted wheat germ, no more than about 1/4 cup in this recipe, just to give it a bit of a nutritional boost. As with most cornmeal muffins, these are best served the day they are baked. I don't know how well they freeze, the kids eat them up too quickly. I can't remember where I found the recipe, but thought I would post it here for safe keeping. Update to this recipe. I have added honey on to the ingredient list. I usually use honey instead of sugar when I make these. It adds a bit of flavour as well as making them moister.

Tips:
- Use the right type of cornmeal. Stone-ground cornmeal will give your muffins a more rustic texture, while finely-ground cornmeal will produce a more tender crumb.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make your muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the batter rest. Allowing the batter to rest for a few minutes before baking will help the cornmeal absorb the liquid and produce a more tender muffin.
- Bake the muffins at a high temperature. This will help them rise quickly and develop a golden brown crust.
- Serve the muffins warm. Buttermilk cornbread muffins are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, but they can also be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Buttermilk cornbread muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect buttermilk cornbread muffins every time. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying snack, give these muffins a try!
