Corn and Molasses Muffins image

These are sweet cornmeal muffins (not too sweet), with a cake-like texture. They'd be good with some currants or raisins added, too, I'd bet. I like them unadulterated and unadorned, though...I don't even think they need butter. I got this from "Enchanted Broccoli Forest," by the way.

Time 30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups unbleached white flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt, scant
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 1/2 cups milk (I use skim)
1 egg
5 tablespoons melted butter
4 tablespoons molasses
3 tablespoons sugar
1 dash cinnamon (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven 375°F Lightly grease 12 muffin cups.
  • Whisk together the dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl. Make a well in the center.
  • In a separate container, beat together the remaining ingredients. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, and stir just enough to combine thoroughly.
  • Fill the muffin cups just up to the edge of the pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Remove the muffins from the pan right away, and cool on a rack for at least 10 minutes before eating.
