Cornbread Muffins with a

I usually make cornbread muffins as my husband tolerates them better than the traditional iron skillet version (he is not a big cornbread fan). Doesn't make sense to me, but I put these together one evening to go with a pot of chili.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 c yellow cornmeal
1 c unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp chili powder
1 c corn kernels (thawed if using frozen)
1 can(s) 4 ounce chopped green chilies (can sub diced jalapeno for more kick)
1 c cheddar cheese, finely shredded
1 large egg, slightly beaten
1/4 c oil of choice
1 c buttermilk, little more or less

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees; spray muffin tins (regular 12-muffin pan) with cooking spray.
  • 2. In a large bowl, mix together the corn meal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cumin and chili powder. To the dry mixture add in the chopped chilies (or jalapenos), corn kernels and the cheddar cheese. Mix together thoroughly.
  • 3. Pour in the egg, oil of choice and the buttermilk (starting with about 1 cup) and stir to combine. You want a fairly thick batter, so add buttermilk to get proper consistency. Scrape bottom of bowl and sides and stir just until thoroughly mixed. Let sit in the bowl for 5 minutes.
  • 4. Spoon the batter equally among the prepared muffin tins; they should be just about full. Place in the preheated oven and bake until golden brown, about 15 - 20 minutes.
  • 5. Remove from the pan immediately and serve or place on cooling rack if not using right away.

These muffins were a little too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best cornbread muffins he's ever had.

Easy to make and delicious! I used fresh corn kernels instead of canned, and they added a great flavor.

I'm not usually a fan of cornbread, but these muffins were surprisingly good. The kick from the jalapeƱos was just right, and the muffins were moist and fluffy.
