You know we love our cornbread, and these are the original cornbread muffins. This recipe has been in our family for years and years.

❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

It’s easy to make and a wonderful way to use sour cream. We find we always have leftover sour cream from making recipes, and this is one of our go-to’s when we want to use it. Cornbread muffins are easy and delicious!

🍴KEY INGREDIENTS

• Self-rising cornmeal
• All-purpose flour
• Sugar
• Eggs
• Sour cream
• Buttermilk

SWAPS

You can use milk in place of the buttermilk, but we love to make cornbread with buttermilk for the added fat content.

🍽️HOW TO MAKE

Cornbread is very easy to make, and it takes nothing! So don’t worry, this is simple!

COOKING STEPS

Step 1
Whisk together cornmeal, flour and sugar in a bowl.  Add eggs, sour cream and buttermilk and mix well with a spoon.

Step 2
Generously spray a muffin tin.  Bake in preheated 425 degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes.

⭐TIP

To make sure each muffin is about the same size fill each muffin tin the same amount. You can use muffin liners if you like, but if you have a seasoned muffin pan and spray the pan well they shouldn’t stick. I pop them out of the pan like the photo below so they will cool faster.
