Fast, easy and tasty — perfect with a stew or chili. These also freeze well. I first found this recipe in an older Bonnie Stern cookbook many years ago and have been making these ever since.

Delicious. I used 1/2 cup white flour, 1/2 cup whole wheat flour instead of 1 cup white flour. Turned out great.

    A good base recipe. Step 7 is important — without something added, they're too bland. I did a plain batch to test the recipe, then one with chipotles and one with green chiles. The plain and the chipotle were made with milk, as directed. For the green chile batch, I used buttermilk instead. It's good both ways. I won't make them plain again, but will make again with additions. They were done after 12-15 minutes, would have been way too dark and dry at 20-25.

    Great cornbread muffins!! I made it as you directed, but used 2% milk, everything else stayed the same. The muffins were perfect with pinto beans (would be great with stew, too). The muffins were not heavy, which we like. Thanks, Lennie for posting this wonderful recipe. Definately a keeper!
