Ingredients

  • ½ cup all purpose flour
  • ½ cup fine yellow cornmeal
  • ½ tbsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 3 - 4 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  • Whisk the wet ingredients in a separate bowl until combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Do not overmix.
  • Pour the batter into a mini muffin pan.
  • Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Notes

  • This recipe makes 24 mini muffins. You may make regular-sized muffins by adding a few more minutes to the total bake time.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing may result in dense corn muffins.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of maple syrup used if you prefer a sweeter muffin.
  • I like to use a silicone muffin pan to bake these muffins as they pop out easily without any sticking. You can also make them into mini loaves using a silicone mini loaf pan. If using a non-silicone pan, be sure to coat with a cooking spray beforehand.
