Temp:
180° c  -  360° f

Step 1: You will need

  • 120 g yellow cornmeal
  • 120 g flour
  • 100 g sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • a pinch of salt
  • a pinch of chilli flakes
  • 150 g sweet corn
  • 200 g crème fraiche
  • 55 g butter, melted
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 bowls
  • 2 spoons
  • 12 small muffin cups
  • 1 baking tray

Step 2: Preheat the oven

Set the oven to 180ºC (350ºF/ gas mark 4).

Step 3: Mix the dry ingredients

In a bowl put the cornmeal, flour, sugar, sweet corn, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and chilli flakes. Mix together well.

Step 4: Mix the wet ingredients

In a second bowl combine the butter, with the crème fraiche and eggs and gently stir together.

Step 5: Mix all the ingredients

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix together until combined. Don't overmix as this will make the muffins elastic. They should be stay light and fluffy.

Step 6: Fill the moulds

Arrange the cake moulds onto the oven tray.

Spoon the mixture into each cake mould, filling it about three quarters full to allow for the muffins to rise during baking.

Step 7: Bake the muffins

Slide the baking tray into the centre of the oven and bake for 20 minutes.

Step 8: Serve

When the muffins have risen and turned golden brown, remove them from the oven and take them out of the moulds.

Serve while warm with butter. They also make a great accompaniment for stews or meat dishes.
