Corn-y Muffins




 
These little bad boys came out of left field and just floored me. Katie found this recipe in the Best Recipes Ever cookbook and made them to accompany some soup we were having. These muffins elevated the humble soup to a new level and throughout the meal I could not heap enough praise on Katie for this amazing discovery. Not dissimilar to having corn bread with chilli, these muffins have the subtle grittiness of the corn meal but also had bursts of corn kernels and the freshness of the green onion.


 
I was a little wary at first as the recipe included creamed corn and this was not something that we ate in our household. Not that we were above creamed corn, but I think it is something that my mom would attest to having ‘god darn picky eaters’ as sons. If we were going to have corn from a can then it was the whole kernel variety. I took a lot of stances like this as a child but fortunately my tastes have matured and I can now wholly recommend muffins with creamed corn in them.
