Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 1 Large eggs
- 0.75 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Chopped scallions (optional)
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, and egg until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped scallions (if using) until evenly distributed.
Using a small spoon or cookie scoop, divide the batter evenly among the 24 mini muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
