When I was a child you couldn’t pay me to eat a corn muffin or any type of muffin for that matter. All I wanted was cupcakes and lollipops. When I got older I tried a corn muffin that was served along with some Honey Hickory Ribs and some good ol mac and cheese. Taste Buds did back flips, fireworks went off, all that kind of stuff. I learned how to make them immediately and ever since then I’ve been adding jalapeno peppers, ham and cheese, and chives. The great thing about these corn muffins is that you can serve them with dinner, take them on a picnic, have them for breakfast, you name it. The cornmeal gives it a nice bite and the buttermilk and melted butter give them moisture. These were perfect.
