I found this recipe in a cookbook called. Quick Vegetarian Pleasures. Makes 12 muffins. These are light and moist, with a mild but irresistible cheese accent. They are equally good served for breakfast or with chili. If you want a more traditional corn muffin, just leave out the cheese. Ingredients:
1 cup unbleached flour |
1 cup cornmeal (i like to use coarser polenta) |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 large egg |
1 cup milk |
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted |
1 1/4 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2. Butter the insides and the top of a regular muffin pan (1/3 cup).
3. In large bowl thoroughly combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt and sugar.
4. In medium bowl, beat the egg.
5. Beat in the milk and the melted butter.
6. Combine with the dry ingredients until just evenly moistened.
7. Do not overmix.
8. Stir in 1 cup of cheese.
9. Immediately spoon the batter into the muffin pan.
10. Evenly sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of the muffins.
11. Bake 17 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center of the muffin comes out clean.
12. Best served warm.
