Ingredients
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 5 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Grease a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray or a light coating of butter.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk the egg, milk, and melted butter until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. It is okay if the mixture is a bit lumpy; do not overmix.
- Evenly spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 17 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack. Serve warm.
