Jalapeno Corn Muffins Recipe

Prep/Total Time: 30 min.

Yield: 16 Servings

15 15 30

Ingredients

1-1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 eggs
1 cup fat-free milk
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
1 can (8-3/4 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper
1/2 cup chopped seeded jalapeno peppers

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. In another bowl, combine the eggs, milk, butter and cilantro; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Stir in the corn, red pepper and jalapenos.
Coat muffin cups with cooking spray; fill two-thirds full with batter. Bake at 425° for 12-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Serve warm. Yield: 16 muffins.

Editor's Note: Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
