Gluten Free Double Corn Muffins

This week is all about menu planning in action! Be sure to check out the post about it HERE. Todays recipe will make 12 muffins and was adapted from food52.



What you'll need

  • Muffin tin
  • Cutting board
  • Knife
  • Mixing bowl
  • Mixing spoon
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups stone ground cornmeal
  • 1/2 cup of any gluten free flour you like. (Regular wheat flour if you don't want them gluten free)
  • 2 teaspoons sea or kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 ounces butter, melted
  • 1 cup corn kernels, roasted
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup scallions, dice the green part only

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Fill the muffin tin with cupcake papers or spray with pam. 
  2. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and spread a cup of thawed frozen corn kernels on it. Roast them in the oven until nicely browned. This will take about 15 minutes. 
  3. Remove from the oven and allow to cool while mixing the batter. Otherwise you could take an ear of corn and roast it on the grill and use those kernels.
  4. Sift the dry ingredients together into a mixing bowl and then add the eggs, buttermilk, and melted butter. With a mixing spoon stir only until the dry ingredients are moistened.
  5. Add the corn, cheese, and scallions and stir to blend.
  6. Use an ice cream scoop, measuring cup, or spoon to fill each muffin cup to the top. Bake until perfectly risen and golden brown. This will take about 12 - 15 minutes.
  7. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes. They will firm as they dry so if they are crumbly do not worry.
