Favorite core/simply filling corn bread recipe

  • Does anyone have a favorite cornbread/muffin recipe? It seems like the ones I have tried are a little dry.
  • Yep ... matter of fact, made some tonight to go with our stew dinner. It's from the "Crazy Plates" cookbook...

    1 cup all-purpose flour
    1 cup yellow cornmeal
    2 Tbsp sugar
    1-1/2 tsp baking powder
    1/2 tsp baking soda
    1/2 tsp salt
    1 can (14 oz) cream style corn
    1/2 cup buttermilk, OR
    (skim milk + 1Tbsp vinegar/lemon juice=1/2 cup total)
    1 egg
    2 Tbsp butter or margarine, melted
    1 can (4-1/2 oz) diced green chilies, OR
    (substitute 2 Tbsp honey)

    - Preheat oven 375'
    - Spray 12 cup muffin tin w. non-stick spray
    - In large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, b/pwder, b/soda, salt. Set aside
    - In medium bowl, whisk together corn, buttermilk, egg, melted butter and diced green chilies (or honey).
    - Add wet ingredients to dry. Stir just until dry ingredients are moistened.
    - Divide batter among 12 muffin cups. Bake for 20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean - careful not to overbake.
    - Remove muffins from tin & cool slightly on a wire rack.
    - Best served warm.

  • That is not a Simply Filling recipe! No flour, sugar or butter allowed. The poster asked for a SF recipe.
  • WOW! Quilter I have seen several posts of yours that may be construed as hostile. You may want to reread before posting.
  • I wouldn't say hostile. Just matter of fact. She's right. That recipe ISN't CORE or Simply Filling. But, a person could make it and count the points toward their weekly 35. It sure sounds worth the 3 points per muffin.
