Corn Muffin Recipe

Corn muffin has become one of my favorite baked goodies ever since I first tasted it at a restaurant many many years ago. But I don’t remember my folks making it at home because of the scarcity of the ingredients particularly the cornmeal. Thankfully, Iloilo has been improving in terms of economy therefore giving ways for businesses to open including a few baking supply stores.

Cornmeal, and other baking ingredients and tools, can be bought at Chefs and Bakers located in Mandurriao, Iloilo. For less than Php 100, a pack can yield at least 100 pieces of medium-sized corn muffin.


Here's the dry ingredients.

Dry ingredients added into butter and sugar mixture.

Last Christmas, my husband found these festive paper liners so he got a couple of designs and used them when we made for his family. We also added slices of cheese and fruits for a different twist but for me, I'm ok with plain and paperless version.
