Copy Cat Recipe
"This recipe is by far the best I have come across since growing up on Jiffy Mix corn muffins. Growing up in one region and moving to another will change a simple recipe like this. This is a northern sweet corn muffin recipe, not a southern style. Let's see if we can convert you!" 😉
Sweet Corn Muffins
Servings – 12 Prep Time – 10 Minutes Cook Time – 40 Minutes
Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup medium cornmeal
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 pound unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 extra-large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix the flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, and eggs.
With the mixer on the lowest speed, pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and stir until they are just blended.
Spoon the batter into the paper liners, filling each one to the top. I like to use a cookie or ice cream scoop to keep it even.
Bake for 30 minutes, until the tops are crisp and a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool slightly and remove from the pan.
Serve warm with pats of butter, honey and or jam. (optional)
Notes:
Add 1-1/2 cup of blueberries, coat with a tablespoon of flour (to prevent sinking) fold into batter for another muffin flavor option.
"I’ve made this recipe quit a few times. It’s absolutely perfect the way it is - but I also like to add 1 cup blueberries mixed with a little flour so they don’t sink during baking."
