Back to Monday Muffins

These muffins are a nice side dish to stew or soup in place of rolls.  They are also good with jam, but they are not a sweet dessert muffin.  If you are from the south and make real corn bread these are probably a travesty, but in my world "y'all" is not a word and these are pretty good.

Corn Muffins

1 c flour
1 c cornmeal
2 tbsp sugar
1  1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 can (14 oz) cream corn
1/2 c buttermilk
1 egg
2 tbsp melted margarine or oil
1 can diced green chilies (optional - I never use these because I am a spice wimp, but since it is written on my recipe card, I'll include it here.)

Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl.  Mix dry ingredients in a small bowl, then pour into dry all at once.  Stir to moisten, then scoop into muffin tins.

Bake 20 min at 375.
