32 Reviews of Cornbread Muffins

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.

    I made these as is with two small exceptions. I used whole milk instead of 1%, and sprinkled cheese in some of them, just because I want to put cheese in everything. These were a bit moister and sweeter than the recipe I was using, so these have now replaced the old standard. Nice, lovely texture and taste, got enthusiastic thumbs up from the entire family.

    Pretty tasty! We had these with ham and beans, and they were perfect. Very fast. I thought at first there was a typo on the amount of baking powder, but now I know why there's so much. These are light, fluffy, and delicious!

    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!

    I just got the first batch of these out of the oven. They're pretty good- not quite cornmealy enough for me, though, I think. I added chopped red peppers and frozen corn. I think that they would benefit from the suggested cheese on top, but I would include that as "optional" in the ingredients. Very easy and quick, as muffins should be. One warning, though- If you make muffins and put corn in them REFRIGERATE OR FREEZE. I learned the hard way that the corn kernals will go rancid very quickly, which is quite unpleasant. These don't have any extreme or unusual flavors, just light and fluffy- I'd imagine VERY kid-friendly.

    Served this with chili and it was great. The kids finished them off at breakfast with a protien shake and fruit. A keeper for sure.

    Made these plain, Yumm! Used half buttermilk and half milk, (wanted to finish off buttermilk). Look forward to trying them jalapeno's etc.

    Lennie I made these for my son yesterday afternoon and by this morning they were all gone! Guess I will have to run off and make another batch before he gets home from school. Thanks for a wonderful recipe.

    My step-kids ate them! Which is saying a lot since their idea of a great meal is chili cheese dogs at Sonic. I did add about 2T extra sugar.

    Excellent!!! I accidently forgot to add the sugar and they still came out very good. I added a tad more cornmeal and about a 1/4 c. creamed corn and 1/4 c. frozen corn. Thanks!
