Ingredients

  • 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup yellow cornmeal
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 4 tablespoons melted butter
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 cup whole milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Grease the muffin tin with shortening or butter.  
  • Whisk together flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the beaten egg, butter, oil, and milk. Stir just until combined. Divide evenly into the prepared muffin tin.
  • Bake for 7 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees and cook for 9-10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze for up to 2 months. Defrost in the refrigerator overnight.
  • To reheat, wrap the muffins in aluminum foil and place in a 350-degree oven for 10-15 minutes or until hot. Or reheat in the microwave at reduced power in short intervals until hot.
