Corn Muffins



I love corn bread! I especially love it with honey and whole corn kernels.  And I even love that gritty texture (if you don't i suggest soaking the cornmeal in buttermilk overnight)

Ingredients:
1 cup cornmeal
1 cup flour
1 cup corn kernals (frozen, canned, or fresh off the cob)
5 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/3 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg
1 egg yolk
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3 tablespoons vegetable oil

1. preheat oven to 400
2. combine dry ingredients in a large bowl
3. combine wet ingredients in a separate bowl
4. pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and mix until just combined
5. fold in the corn kernels gently
6. scoop ice cream scoop amounts of the batter into lined cupcake tins
7. bake for about 15 minutes

makes about 15
