Ingredients

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1 TBS baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup butter (melted, and slightly cooled)
  • 6 TBS granulated sugar
  • 2 TBS vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 F. Grease a regular muffin tin with nonstick spray, or insert paper liners. Set the pan aside.
  • Combine the dry ingredients in a medium bowl; flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt.
  • In another bowl, stir together the butter, sugar, and oil for a couple minutes.
  • Add in the eggs, and whisk until combined.
  • Add in the milk and stir it into the wet ingredients.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and stir them together until combined.
  • Spoon the batter into 12 muffin cups, filling them evenly, almost to the top of each spot.
  • Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
  • Keep the muffins in the oven and lower the temperature to 350 degrees. Continue baking the muffins another 8 to 11 minutes, or until a toothpick can be inserted and comes out clean.
  • Cool the muffins for 5 to 10 minutes in the muffin tin, then remove them and enjoy them warm. Or transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
