Equipment

  • Muffin tin
  • Oven

Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup / 185 ml milk your choice of fat percentage
  • 1/2 cup / 125 ml / 115 g unsalted melted butter
  • 1 cup canned creamed corn
  • Dry Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup 110 g granulated sugar (optional to reduce to 1/4 cup)
  • 3/4 cup yellow cornmeal often labeled “polenta” in Australia
  • 1 1/2 cups 225 g all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Baking

  • Extra melted butter for greasing and brushing

Instructions
 

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  • First, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Preheating ensures even baking throughout the muffins. An adequately heated oven guarantees that the muffins rise well and have that golden color.

Step 2: Prepare the Muffin Tin

  • Grease a muffin tin with melted butter or line the cups with paper liners. This step prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.

Step 3: Combine Wet Ingredients

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and creamed corn. Make sure everything is well mixed; this base will provide moisture and flavor to your muffins.

Step 4: Mix the Dry Ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, combine the granulated sugar, cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sea salt, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Stir well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.

Step 5: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

  • Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Fold the mixture gently using a spatula. Watch out for overmixing; a lumpy batter means fluffy muffins.

Step 6: Fill Muffin Cups

  • Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. This gives the muffins room to rise without overflowing. Simply fill each cup to about halfway if you prefer a smaller muffin.

Step 7: Bake

  • Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes. The muffins should be golden brown on top, and a toothpick inserted in the center will come out clean.

Step 8: Cool and Enjoy

  • Let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack. Savory or sweet, each bite is sure to bring a smile.

Notes

Here are five tips to elevate your muffin game:
  • Use Room Temperature Ingredients: This helps everything blend smoothly and creates a better texture.
  • Avoid Overmixing: Folding just until combined preserves the muffins’ fluffiness.
  • Experiment with Add-Ins: Consider adding jalapeños for a kick, or blueberries for freshness. Mix and match according to your craving.
  • Store Properly: To maintain freshness, store in an airtight container at room temperature.
  • Don’t Skip the Cooling: Giving them a few minutes to cool down enhances the muffin texture and flavor.
