Gluten free corn muffins are light and fluffy, made with cornmeal, brown sugar, and butter, and ready in only 20 minutes!
I have a small confession to make… I’m not really good at making muffins. Well, that’s not really true. What I’m not good at is making pretty muffins. I mean, there’s a lot that goes into that perfectly-poofed muffin top that all of us muffin enthusiasts truly desire.
Despite their visual appearance, however, the muffins I make always (usually) taste amazing.
So, I’ve decided to share with you today, dear readers, my go-to corn muffins recipe, along with some tips I learned along the way. These are also gluten free, but have been taste tested by my non-gluten free friends and have passed with flying colors!
- First, get all of your ingredients to room temperature before mixing everything together, which will help your muffins get big and beautiful.
- A lot of muffin recipes call for a lower cooking temperature, but cooking muffins at a hotter temperature will help them poof up more, achieving that glorious muffin top. That’s why I’m cooking these at 400°F.
- It’s a good idea to crack the eggs into their own bowl first, to make sure there’s no renegade egg shells or bad eggs mixing with other ingredients.
- Fill the muffin tins up as much as you can. I sometimes make extra to get it up to the very top of the muffin tin. This helps make the top even bigger, with results varying depending on the recipe.
