The keys to a good corn muffin are (1) don’t overmix the batter and (2) don’t overbake. Adding apple and corn to the mix helps retain moisture.
Tip: Frozen, canned, or fresh corn will all work equally well.
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- ½ cup yellow cornmeal
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp. baking powder
- ¼ tsp. salt
- ¾ cup skim milk
- 1 egg
- 1 apple, peeled and chopped
- ½ cup corn
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper or foil liners.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir to blend evenly.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Stir in the apple and corn.
- Pour the wet mixture into the flour mixture. Stir gently until just moistened. Some lumps are okay.
- Fill prepared muffin cups two-thirds full and bake until springy to the touch (18-22 minutes).
