I’ve just returned from a bruncheon attended by women from my church. So much fun ! Anyway, I was in charge of bringing the muffins. Really an exciting task for me, because I have the BEST muffin recipe thats been lurking around my family cookbooks for years. Very simple, very delicious – and because of that – not the healthiest. But don’t let that dissuade you. Ever Everyone deserves a treat every once in a while. In our family, these muffins show up at Thanksgiving (I know – muffins at Thanksgiving? you may ask. I don’t get it either – family traditions are unexplainable). Try it out, I promise they won’t disappoint:
- 1 Package Jiffy corn muffin mix
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup of whole milk
- 1/2 cup of fresh sour cream
- 1/2 cup of grated cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup of creamed corn
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all the ingredients together in a large bowl (batter will be lumpy). Scoop mixture into muffin tins. Cook for 15-20 minutes. Let cool (will be considerably hot !) for 5 minutes.
Yields 6 muffins.
Now I’d like to point out that I’ve been conservative in my estimates of those “good” ingredients (i.e., sour cream, cheddar). Feel free to up the sour cream by another 1/3 cup if you’re daring ;o). Makes muffins nice and moist !
