FRESH RASPBERRY MINI CORN MUFFINS



Fresh Raspberry Mini Corn Muffins image

I can't write a cookbook about comfort food without including corn muffins; they're my guilty pleasure. Corn muffins can be dry and tasteless but allowing the batter to sit for 15 minutes gives the dry ingredients time to absorb the wet ones and results in moister muffins. This is a variation on my favorite Raspberry Corn Muffins from The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook made with fresh raspberries instead of raspberry jam.

Provided by Ina Garten Bio & Top Recipes

Time 50m

Yield 48 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 11

Baking spray with flour, such as Pam
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup fine cornmeal, such as Indian Head
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 cups whole milk
2 extra-large eggs
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
12 ounces firm fresh raspberries
2 tablespoons turbinado sugar, such as Sugar in the Raw

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Arrange two racks evenly spaced in the oven. Generously spray two mini muffin pans (24 mini muffins each) with the baking spray, including the tops of the pans.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl whisk together the milk, eggs, and butter. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients, pour the wet ingredients into the well, and stir with a rubber spatula, just until combined. (Don't worry if it's a little lumpy.) Set the batter aside for 15 minutes.
  • When the batter has rested, fold the raspberries into the batter with the spatula. With a small (1 3/4-inch) ice cream scoop (you can also use a spoon), fill each muffin cup with a rounded scoop of batter, making sure each one contains some raspberries. Sprinkle the full 2 tablespoons of turbinado sugar on the muffins.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, until the muffins spring back when gently touched and a cake tester comes out clean. Serve warm or at room temperature.
  • Make ahead: Prepare the batter completely, cover, and refrigerate. Scoop and bake the next day.

BUTTERMILK CORNMEAL MUFFINS



Buttermilk Cornmeal Muffins image

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.

Time 40m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
¼ cup white sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 ½ cups finely shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup milk
2 eggs
¼ cup vegetable oil
3 canned jalapeno peppers - stems and seeds removed and peppers finely diced
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon butter, melted - divided
3 tablespoons yellow cornmeal, or as needed - divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Whisk flour, 1 cup cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder together in a bowl. Mix Cheddar cheese into dry ingredients until coated.
  • Beat milk, eggs, vegetable oil, jalapeno peppers, and vanilla extract together in a separate bowl until well mixed. Make a well in the Cheddar cheese mixture and pour egg mixture into the well; stir just until combined. Batter should be slightly lumpy.
  • Brush 18 mini muffin cups with melted butter; spoon about 1 teaspoon cornmeal into each mini muffin cup, tilt pan to coat muffin cups with cornmeal, and tap out the excess. Spoon batter into each muffin cup to about 2/3 full.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn kernels. Fresh corn kernels will give your muffins the best flavor. If you don't have fresh corn kernels, you can use frozen or canned corn kernels, but they won't be as flavorful.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups almost full. This will help the muffins rise properly.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help them to hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Mini buttermilk corn muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or breakfast food. They are perfect for potlucks, picnics, or just a quick snack. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy these delicious muffins anytime you want.
