I make these tender corn muffins at least twice a month. My husband and relatives love the zippy flavor.
Ingredients:
2 packages (8-1/2 ounces each) corn bread/muffin mix
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon grated lime peel
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 eggs
2/3 cup buttermilk
4 ounces cream cheese, cubed
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
4 green onions, finely chopped
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the muffin mixes, cilantro, lime peel and cumin. Whisk eggs and buttermilk; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in the cream cheese, jalapenos and onions.
2. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full. Bake at 400° for 16-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in muffin comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Serve warm. Yield: 1 dozen.
