Easy Buttermilk Cornbread Muffins
Description
This recipe mixes melted salted butter with sugar and eggs, then adds baking soda and buttermilk to create a smooth wet mixture. Cornmeal, all-purpose flour, and salt are stirred in last to form the batter. Muffins are portioned into a greased or lined muffin tin, then baked at 375°F until the tops brown and centers are firm.
The texture combines the slight grit of cornmeal with soft crumb from flour and buttermilk, yielding moist muffins with a golden crust. These muffins can complement savory dishes or stand on their own as a simple quick bread. No specialized techniques are needed, and the steps are straightforward, suitable for home cooks.
