Equipment

  • Muffin Tin

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ Cups All-Purpose Flour
  • ¾ Cup Cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ Cup Butter Softened
  • Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 tablespoon Honey
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • Cup Milk
  • 2 Ears Fresh Corn Husks Removed. (or 1 ½ cups corn kernels)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare cupcake tin with paper liners or spray with nonstick spray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat together butter, sugar, and honey until light and fluffy.
    Add eggs and milk, stirring carefully until well incorporated.
    Mix in the flour mixture, stirring just until combined.
  • Using a sharp knife, carefully cut kernels off the ears of corn.
    Stir corn into batter - as well as any add-ins - mix just until distributed.
  • Spoon batter into prepared muffin pan.
  • Bake for 24-26 minutes, until a knife or toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Once cooled to room temperature, muffins can be transferred to an airtight container and stored in the fridge.
    If you don't use meat in them, they'll last up to a week. Muffins with meat added should be eaten within 3 or 4 days.
