Tips:

  • Use fresh chives for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh chives, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried chives.
  • Use canned or frozen corn kernels. If you use fresh corn, be sure to cook it before adding it to the muffin batter.
  • Be sure to mix the wet and dry ingredients separately before combining them. This will help to ensure that the muffins are light and fluffy.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin tins about 2/3 full. If you fill them too full, the muffins will overflow.
  • Bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These chive corn muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover corn. Serve them warm with butter and honey, or with your favorite soup or stew.
