You know a good corn muffin in the first bite. The perfect balance of sweet and grainy cornmeal, with a sticky top.
This is literally the only corn muffin recipe I ever use (thank you, Neely’s!). They’re fantastic for breakfast (lightly toasted with a smear of butter) or (more frequently in our house) for dinner alongside pulled pork.
If you’re looking to take this recipe to the next level, add a handful of chopped sweet corn kernels to the batter. Enjoy!

They look delicious. I haven’t ever had a corn flour muffin before. They look good though. In intrigued

They’re so quick and easy to make, you should definitely try them! Perfect with chili or BBQ too…
Alicia Jankowski says
getting ready to put these in the oven. in your written directions you don’t have eggs listed with the wet ingredients. just thought you might want to edit that. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Ashley Kinder says
Thank you, Alicia! I made the fix — hope you enjoyed these muffins! Thanks for visiting Fancy Fork. 🙂

just finished making these using your recipe. i don’t know what i did wrong but when i was done mixing the wet into the dry it was really watery. but they actually still turned out really well!
Ashley Kinder says
Hi Jess! I’m glad you liked these muffins! The batter isn’t very thick and I had the same reservations about these turning out well once I put them in the oven… but the Neely’s (original recipe) know their batter!
