Our take on a famous Southern staple.
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp finely chopped jalapeños
1/2 cup grated smoked cheddar
1/2 cup fresh corn kernels
1 egg
1/2 cup melted butter
1/3 cup 2% milk
PREHEAT oven to 425F.
WHISK cornmeal and flour with baking powder, salt and jalapenos in a medium bowl. Stir in cheddar and fresh corn kernels. Beat egg with melted butter and milk in a small bowl. Stir into cornmeal mixture just until combined.
SPOON into a lightly oiled mini muffin tin. Bake until golden, 10 to 12 min. Serve warm.
Chatelaine celebrates, inspires, informs and empowers. We know that Canadian women contain multitudes, and we cover all of the issues—big and small—that matter to them, from climate change to caregiving, Canadian fashion and what to cook now.
