These savoury treats are sure to be a hit if you love corn bread. Medium-ground cornmeal gives these muffins a slightly crunchy texture, while frozen corn keeps the muffins moist despite having only 2 tbsp butter in the batter. Serve warm with a bowl of chili or corn chowder.

Ingredients

Method

In large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and cayenne pepper.

Whisk together buttermilk, egg and butter; pour over cornmeal mixture. Add corn; stir just until combined. Spoon into greased mini-muffin cups.

Bake in 400°F (200°C) oven until tester inserted in a few comes out clean, about 10 minutes. Let cool in pan on rack. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight container for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 2 weeks.)
