Ingredients:
Quantity | Ingredient |
---|---|
2 cups | All-purpose flour |
1/2 cup | Yellow cornmeal |
1/4 cup | Brown sugar |
1 tsp | Baking powder |
1/4 tsp | Salt |
3/4 cup | Skim milk |
2 | Apples, diced |
1 cup | Corn kernels, fresh or canned |
1 | Egg white |
1/2 cup | Margarine, melted |
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
-
Prepare muffin tin: Spray a 12-cup muffin tin generously with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
-
Combine dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to blend the dry ingredients evenly.
-
Prepare wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the skim milk, egg white, and melted margarine until well combined.
-
Add fruits: Add the diced apples and corn kernels to the wet ingredients mixture, stirring until evenly distributed.
-
Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet ingredients mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to gently fold the ingredients together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
-
Fill muffin cups: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
-
Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 25 to 30 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Cool: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Serve: Enjoy these delicious Apple Corn Muffins warm or at room temperature. They’re perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a snack any time of the day!
