Recipe Instructions:
-
In a small bowl, stir together the unbleached flour, 3 tablespoons of yellow cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
-
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, creating a cozy spot for the wet ingredients.
-
In another bowl, stir together the beaten egg yolk, milk, and melted butter. This concoction will bring the magic to your muffins.
-
Add the wet ingredients all at once to the dry ingredients, gently stirring until just moistened. It’s the perfect marriage of flavors waiting to happen!
-
Line two 6-ounce custard cups with paper baking cups, setting the stage for your mini muffin masterpieces.
-
Fill the cups 2/3rds full, ensuring a perfect rise in the microwave.
-
Sprinkle a little additional cornmeal atop each muffin, adding that extra touch of texture and visual appeal.

Now, the microwave takes center stage. Micro-cook, uncovered, on 100% power for about 45 seconds or until done, remembering to rearrange once during the process. The surface may appear moist, but a wooden pick inserted near the center should come out clean, signaling muffin perfection.
