Corn Muffins
Description
These vegan corn muffins offer a delightful balance of sweet corn flavor and a satisfyingly crisp exterior. By using silken tofu blended with hot water, you achieve a moist, tender crumb without any dairy or eggs. The secret to that perfect golden crust is preheating the oiled muffin tin in the oven before adding the batter. They pair wonderfully with soups, chili, or simply with a spread of jam for breakfast. Simple ingredients come together quickly to create a wholesome treat that feels like homemade comfort food.Ingredients
Directions
-
Preheat your oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC). Place an oiled muffin tin in the oven to heat up while you prepare the batter.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal (or corn flour) and whole wheat pastry flour until well combined.
-
Crumble the soft tofu into the container of a blender.
-
Carefully pour the boiled water and add the salt to the blender with the tofu.
-
Blend the mixture on high for just a few pulses until smooth but not completely uniform; a slightly textured batter is fine.
-
Immediately pour the hot liquid mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined and no dry flour remains.
-
Carefully remove the hot muffin tin from the oven.
-
Spoon the batter evenly into the hot muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
-
Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
