Honey Cornmeal Muffins

My kids are growing up too fast, especially my son ! He turned 12 two months ago. He is almost as tall and as heavy as I am, he eats twice as much and he beats me easily on arm wrestling ! I am happy but a little sad at the same time…..My baby is no longer a baby ! He is turning into a man ! I told him I have to kiss and hug him as much as I can because soon he won’t let me ! Looking after 2 active growing kids can be very busy, and often, I tend to forget about myself ! I made these little corn muffins the other day so I can just grab and eat quickly when I am in a rush. You can have them for breakfast or serve them with a soup or a salad for lunch.

100 g cornmeal
180 g all-purpose flour, sifted
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
2 teaspoons lemon juice
120 mL milk
2 eggs, slightly beaten
4 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
4 tablespoons honey

Makes about 12 muffins

Preheat oven to 350ºF
Put lemon juice into milk and let sit for a few minutes
Mix together all dry ingredients
Add eggs, milk with lemon juice, coconut oil and honey, mix until blended
Pour batter into slightly greased silicon or paper muffin cups and bake for about 20 minutes
Serve warm with butter

Cornmeal muffins are one of my favourites! The coconut oil is an interesting ingredient, I’m going to have to give this recipe a try.

Cornmeal muffins were a childhood favourite of mine and I’m still fond of them. Yours look just perfect – it’s nice to know that they work so well with a healthy oil and sweetener.

Awww, my little ones are still pretty little – my oldest is 4.5. So I’ve got a few years left! But I know that they’re definitely big fans of cornbread, so maybe I should start making cornmeal muffins too! Looks like a great, easy recipe!
