Cook Time: 17 minutes

Total Time: 17 minutes

Yield: 10 Muffins

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 1/4 cups yellow cornmeal
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (more or less, to taste)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 4 tablespoons melted butter, cooled

Preparation:

Grease a muffin tin (about 10 muffin cups). Heat oven to 450°.

In a bowl, combine the flour, meal, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and butter. Pour dry mixture into the wet ingredients and stir just until moistened. Fill muffin cups about 3/4 full. Bake at 450° for 5 minutes, then reduce heat to 400° and bake for about 12 minutes longer, or until the muffins begin to brown on top.

Makes about 10 muffins.
