Quick-and-Easy Cornbread Muffins Recipe
Yield: Makes 12 muffins
Ingredients:
- 2 cups (265 g) white or yellow cornmeal (not cornmeal mix or self-rising cornmeal)
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 cups (480 ml) buttermilk
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or bacon grease, melted
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 425 F (218 C). In a medium bowl, combine the cornmeal, salt and baking soda. Set aside. In a large measuring cup, combine the buttermilk and egg. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir to combine.
2. Pour the melted butter into the batter. Stir to combine, then spoon the batter into a 12-cup standard muffin tin, filling each cup no more than two-thirds full. Bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
