2 tbsp sugar
1 1⁄2 tsp kosher salt
3 eggs
3⁄4 cup/100 g all-purpose flour
3⁄4 cup/120 g cornmeal
6 tbsp/40 g rye flour
11⁄2 tbsp baking powder
1⁄2 cup + 1 tbsp/135 ml canola oil
3 tbsp + 2 tsp/55 ml maple syrup

Steps:

  • Position a rack near the top of your oven and preheat to 400°F/ 200°C. Line two 12-cup muffin pans with 15 paper liners, spacing them evenly between the two pans. In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, sugar, and salt for 1 to 2 minutes until nice and fluffy. Incorporatethe eggs slowly, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, rye flour, and baking powder and mix until incorporated. Add the canola oil, maple syrup, and buttermilk. Scrape the mixer bowl well, making sure everything is well incorporated. Add the diced Cheddar, 4 tbsp/25 g of the Parmesan, the bacon, and chives. Mix just until dispersed, folding by hand to be sure. Fill the muffin cups to the very top. In a small bowl toss the grated Cheddar with the remaining 2 tbsp Parmesan and sprinkle evenly over the muffins. Bake for about 15 minutes, until nicely browned but not overbaked inside. Garnish with chopped rosemary. These are best eaten within 24 hours.
