How to Make Mexican Corn Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup cornmeal, ½ cup sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon chili powder.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: 1 cup buttermilk, ⅓ cup vegetable oil, 1 large egg, and 1 cup creamed corn.
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fill each muffin cup about halfway full.
  6. Bake for 22-28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
