Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup cornmeal
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 cup sweet corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen, thawed if frozen)
- 0.75 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 2 stalks green onions, finely chopped
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Add the buttermilk and melted butter, and whisk until well combined.
Step 4
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 5
Fold in the corn kernels, shredded cheddar cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and green onions until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about ¾ 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 about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
