Description

Simple recipe for moist cornbread muffins with pumpkin flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, milk, vegetable oil, and egg until combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • You can substitute buttermilk for regular milk for a slightly tangier flavor.
  • Add 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon or nutmeg for extra spice.
