- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup canned sweet corn, drained
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons sliced green onions (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the tin with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, mix the milk, melted butter, and eggs until smooth and fully incorporated.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together until just combined.
Step 5
Add the sweet corn, shredded cheddar cheese, and green onions (if using), folding the ingredients into the batter. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Evenly distribute the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins are perfect on their own or paired with soups, chili, or a pat of butter.
