- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup greek yogurt full fat
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 cup buttermilk room temp
- ½ cup butter unslated /room remp
- 2 eggs
Preheat the oven to 200℃.
Use a 12-cup muffin mold, and line it with silicone or paper muffin cups.
In a large bowl, add and whisk together the 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup cornmeal, ½ cup brown sugar, 1 tbsp baking powder, and ½ tsp salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk, ½ cup butter, 2 eggs and 1 cup greek yogurt until smooth.
Pour in the wet mix into the dry mix. Gently stir with a spatula or spoon until combined. Don't forget to not over-mix the batter; this will keep the muffins tender.
Use an ice cream scoop to divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups (about ¾ full). Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Use a toothpick to insert into the center, and if it comes out clean, your muffins are ready.
