Yield About 24 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup cornmeal
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 tablespoons melted butter, plus additional butter for greasing the mold

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Add the cornmeal and stir.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until foamy. Add the eggs to the dry mixture, along with the milk, vanilla and melted butter. Beat just until smooth (do not overmix).
Grease the mold well, and fill the mold cavities to seven-eighths of capacity with the batter. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the muffins are lightly browned. (The pan has ''feet,'' so it is helpful to set it on a cookie sheet in the oven to avoid tipping.)
