Recipe Collection: Corn Muffins

Written by Kate Tietjehomemade butter.

Traditional southern cornbread is cooked in a cast iron skillet and isn’t sweetened at all.  If that’s what you love…great…but this isn’t it.  I grew up with the boxed mixes and came to like slightly sweet cornbread.  This tastes just like it, with healthier ingredients!

Corn Muffins

Ingredients:

• 1 cup cornmeal
• 1 cup sprouted flour (or teff flour, for gluten-free)
• 1.5 tsp. sea salt
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 4 – 6 tbsp. honey (depending on how sweet you like it)
• 2 eggs
• 6 tbsp. butter, melted (learn how to make your own butter)
• 1 cup milk

Directions:

Step 1: Preheat oven to 400ºF.

Step 2: Mix together all the dry ingredients in a medium bowl.

Step 3: Add the honey, eggs, and butter and stir gently.

Step 4: Add a little milk at a time until a medium-thick batter forms; about 1 cup.

Step 5: Spoon into a prepared muffin tray or an 8×8 baking pan.

Step 6: Bake for 12 – 15 minutes for muffins or 15 – 20 for an 8×8 pan.  Serve hot with lots of real butter.
