Fresh Corn Muffins
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup fine stone-ground cornmeal
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons rye flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 1/4 cup honey
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup fresh corn kernels (from 2 ears)
- Preheat the oven to 400 and line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper or foil liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the all-purpose flour with the cornmeal, rye flour, baking powder and baking soda.
- In another medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk with the oil and honey.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle or using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter, sugar and salt at medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs 1 at a time, scraping down the side of the bowl as needed.
- Add the dry ingredients and beat at medium speed until evenly combined.
- At low speed, gradually beat in the buttermilk mixture until just incorporated, then fold in the corn.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
- Bake for about 15 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffins comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the pans for 10 minutes before turning them out onto a rack to cool completely.
