Do you know when you need an easy, quick and delicious snack? Cornmeal Muffin Muffin It’s the choice! A very versatile and wild recipe.
This version is more american style muffin and flirt a little with the cornbread: a type of corn-based quick bread. And it’s on that line between salty and sweet.
For being a fubá muffin It’s drier than a normal muffin, so we suggest eating it with tea, coffee or juice. Pure is great, but with some butter and it’s half warm it’s great. It also tastes great with jams in general.
And being drier, you could also use it as “bread” when eating soup or serving it with tomato sauce!
In the recipe, I used canned corn Even though there are some brands that are just corn and nothing else. But it could have been frozen in hot water. You could even have the corn on the cob already cooked, but it would be more work and… I didn’t feel like it.
And a tip: grease the pan used very, very well! Otherwise, it will stick more than it should! I hope you make it and enjoy it!
