BACON AND SCALLION CORN MUFFINS

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.

SCALLION-CHEDDAR CORNBREAD STUFFING



Scallion-Cheddar Cornbread Stuffing image

This stuffing - or, you can call it a dressing - is baked outside the turkey so that it develops a crisp topping. You'll want to make sure your cornbread is stale here: If working with fresh cornbread, dry it out in your oven. Crumble the pieces, then spread them on a rimmed sheet pan and bake at 300 degrees until firm and dry, but not hard. Timing will depend on how moist the cornbread was to start, so be sure to keep an eye on it.

Categories     stuffing and dressing, side dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
1 bunch scallions
1 celery rib, including leaves, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 large eggs
6 cups stale cornbread, crumbled into large chunks
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage or rosemary
Pinch of ground cayenne (optional)
1 1/2 cups turkey or chicken stock, plus more as needed
1 cup grated sharp Cheddar
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees if you are planning to bake the stuffing right away (otherwise don't heat it yet). Butter a shallow 1 1/2-quart baking dish or an 8-inch pan (square or round will work).
  • Thinly slice the scallions, separating the white and light green parts from the dark green parts. Save the dark green parts for later.
  • In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons butter (save the remaining 2 tablespoons butter for the topping). When the white butter foam has mostly disappeared, add white and light-green scallion slices, celery and the pinch of salt. Cook vegetables, stirring them often, until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the pepper. (If you're grinding it from a pepper mill, you don't have to measure it. Just turn the mill 10 times over the pan.) Move the skillet to an unlit burner on your stove and let the mixture cool.
  • Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk them together until well mixed. Add cooled celery mixture, dark green scallion parts, cornbread, sage or rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt and cayenne, if using. Stir in the 1 1/2 cups stock, adding more as needed to moisten all the cornbread. You want it moist but not mushy. (Stop before it looks like oatmeal.) Fold in 1/2 cup Cheddar, the Parmesan and parsley.
  • Spoon the stuffing into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the top with the remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar. Cut the butter into 1/2-inch cubes and scatter those over the top of the stuffing. (At this point, you can wrap the cornbread with plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight.)
  • When ready to bake, if you haven't heated the oven, do so now. Bake stuffing until crisp and browned on top, about 25 to 35 minutes. (It will take longer if you're baking it straight from the fridge.) Serve hot or warm.

CORNBREAD MUFFINS



Cornbread Muffins image

Ubiquitous on southern tables, cornbread is a versatile side dish that can be cut into pieces from a cast-iron skillet or, as done in this recipe, portioned as individual muffins. This recipe by Alexander Smalls, a chef, author, restaurateur and former opera singer, uses finely ground cornmeal and two types of milk to create a savory batter, which also gets a kick from coriander. Fresh corn kernels add texture to the dense quickbread. Serve warm alongside a spread of vegetables or a meat dish, with plenty of butter.

Time 25m

CLASSIC CORNBREAD MUFFINS



Classic Cornbread Muffins image

Fast, easy and tasty -- perfect with a stew or chili. These also freeze well. I first found this recipe in an older Bonnie Stern cookbook many years ago and have been making these ever since.

Provided by Lennie

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 35m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup 1% low-fat milk
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Spray muffin tin with nonstick spray or line with paper muffin cups.
  • Combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  • Stir well.
  • Combine beaten egg, milk and melted butter (if using normal butter add less salt).
  • Stir into the dry mixture and combine just until blended.
  • Chopped jalapenos (from a tin) can also be added, as can chopped red pepper and/or tinned corn kernels.
  • Scoop batter into prepared muffin pans.
  • Sprinkle cheddar cheese on top of muffins before baking if desired.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes .

Tips:

  • Use fresh scallions: Fresh scallions impart a more vibrant flavor compared to dried ones.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in dense, dry muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use buttermilk: Buttermilk adds a tangy flavor and helps to make the muffins moist. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This ensures that the muffins are cooked through.
  • Serve the muffins warm: Scallion cornbread muffins are best served warm, straight out of the oven. You can also reheat them in a warm oven or toaster oven.

Conclusion:

Scallion cornbread muffins are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them sweet or savory, these muffins are sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give these scallion cornbread muffins a try.
