Cheesy Sweetcorn Muffins - Real Recipes from Mums

A great recipe for lunchbox fillers.

Ingredients (makes 12 Muffins)

2 cups Self raising flour
420g Sweetcorn kernals, well drained
1 1/2 cups Grated tasty cheese
1/2 cup Milk
3 Eggs
60g Melted butter
1 tsp Tarragon
1 tsp Basil
Pinch Salt

Method

Preheat oven to 180 gegrees C (I think this equates to 160 degrees C in a fan forced oven) and grease a 12 hole muffin pan with cooking spray. Line the muffin holes with baking paper ensuring the paper comes up the sides. I have found that approx 15cm square works well.
Place flour, herbs, sweetcorn and cheese into a mixing bowl and stir until well mixed.
Mix milk and eggs together in a separate bowl and mix on medium speed, and then add the cooled melted butter
Pour into the flour mixture and stir gently until it is just combined.
Divide evenly amongst the muffin holes and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until they are a golden brown and cooked through. If a skewer is inserted into the middle of the muffins, it should come out clean.
Cool the muffins in the tin before you turn the out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Muffins can be placed individually into freezer bags and can be frozen for up to three months. Placing them into individual freezer bags means that they can be packed easily into lunch boxes.

These look yummy. I wonder if you could substitute creamed corn for the corn kernals.

Must do some research on this as it sounds a great recipe. Have to find out how much raising agent there is in the self raising flour as against my lower raising agent and plain flour. Then these muffins will be a great substitute for dialysis patients. The rest of the ingredients are great protein builders without the nasty potassium – but the phosphorous has to be taken out of the flour.
