Ingredients:

• 1 cup unbleached wheat flour
• 1 cup corn flour
• ½ cup cornmeal (polenta)
• ½ cup granulated cane sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 2 eggs, beaten
• ½ cup butter, melted

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a muffin pan with cooking spray or melted butter.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, polenta, sugar, baking powder, and salt. 
3. Make a well in the flour mixture and add the buttermilk, eggs, and butter. Stir until just combined. Lumps are ok!
4. Spoon batter into the muffin cups until they are ¾ full.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until golden and cooked through, about 12-15 minutes.

Make them vegan by substituting your favorite vegan butter 1 to 1 with the dairy butter. To make vegan buttermilk, mix together your favorite plant based milk (we like oat!) and 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar. For eggs, use 2 Tbsp ground chia seeds or egg replacer, mixed with 6 Tbsp water. 

Make them gluten free with a simple swap of 1:1 gluten free flour blend for the unbleached wheat flour. Cornmeal and corn flour are naturally gluten free, but may be processed in a facility with wheat. Look for ingredients labeled ‘Certified Gluten Free.’ We love Bob’s Red Mill.
