Sunflower Corn Muffins Recipes

SUNFLOWER CORN MUFFINS

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the first seven ingredients; stir in cornbread mix just until moistened. Spoon into greased miniature muffin cups. Sprinkle with sunflower kernels. Bake at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until muffins test done. Cool for 2 minutes before removing from pans to a wire rack. Serve warm.

CORN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix the flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, and eggs. With the mixer on the lowest speed, pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and stir until they are just blended. Spoon the batter into the paper liners, filling each one to the top. Bake for 30 minutes, until the tops are crisp and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool slightly and remove from the pan.

CHOCOLATE-CHIP SUNFLOWER-BUTTER MUFFINS

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, then spray the liners with cooking spray. Put the cranberries in a small bowl, and add hot water to cover (if the cranberries are very moist, you can skip this step).
• Whisk together the flour, oats, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl; whisk in the chocolate chips. Whisk together the brown sugar and sunflower butter in a second medium bowl, then whisk in the milk, oil and egg. Stir the sunflower butter mixture into the flour mixture to combine well (the batter will be pretty loose). Strain the cranberries, pat them dry and stir them into the batter.
• Ladle 1/3 cup batter into each muffin cup liner. Bake, rotating the pan about halfway through, until a cake tester inserted in a few muffins comes out clean, 16 to 18 minutes.
• Let cool briefly in the tin on a rack, then transfer the muffins to the rack to cool completely. The muffins can be stored overnight in an airtight container, or individually wrapped in plastic and frozen in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

SAVORY CORN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 450 degrees. Put a 12-cup muffin tin (with standard-sized molds of 12-cup capacity) in oven to heat while preparing batter.
• Microwave creamed corn in a 1-quart Pyrex-type measuring cup to a full boil (or in a medium saucepan over medium heat). Stir in 1 cup of the cornmeal to make a very thick, pasty mush. If the mush is not stiff, microwave an additional 30 seconds or so. Whisk in buttermilk, then eggs and finally butter.
• Mix remaining cornmeal with flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and soda in a medium bowl. Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until just combined.
• Remove muffin tin from oven; coat with non-stick cooking spray. Divide batter evenly among cups (a spring-action ice cream scoop works well).
• Bake until golden brown on sides and bottom, about 15 minutes. Turn onto a wire rack; let cool 5 minutes. Serve.

Fill muffin tins 3/4 full of batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
