Cornmeal Muffins

The History of Corn Muffins

Cornmeal muffins have a rich history and are rooted in American culinary tradition. Originating in the American South, where corn was a staple crop, these muffins were popularized during the colonial era. They have evolved over time from simple sheet pan-baked cornbreads to the softer, fluffier muffins we know today. They are especially popular in the southern and central United States, where they are often served as an accompaniment to dishes such as chili or soup.

Our wildflower honey brings a natural sweetness to the recipe that perfectly complements the rustic flavor of the cornmeal. Try this recipe today and experience the authentic taste of corn muffins.

Comme il existe plusieurs moutures de farine de maïs ( #250, #400, etc), doit-on modifier la quantité que l’on prend si on utilise l’une plutôt que l’autre ?
J’ai toujours fait mon “pain au maïs, ou Jonny Cake” avec le #250 mais j’ai acheté le #400 et je me demande si ça serait mieux de faire les muffins avec, étant donné que le grain est beaucoup plus petit.
Merci d’avance de votre réponse.

Bonjour Marilyn, nous utilisons la farine de maïs. Le nom a tout simplement été vulgarisé, n’est-ce pas…

Pourrais t’on utiliser ce mélange dans le gaufrier ?
