Plain, unadorned muffins go by fast in our house. I observed that my family will reach for a baked treat that is naked and bare more than they will reach for an iced cupcake.

For that reason, cupcakes will stand on our counter for days while these cornbread muffins are gone overnight.

These cornbread muffins are what you need for simple, weekday treats. These are the ones you reach for when you need a quick bite with your coffee. Or if you need some light indulgence. They are not necessarily too indulgent but enough to give you a weekday sweet fix.

These cornbread muffins are an easy whipping, perfect-for-weekdays- kind of baking.

Cornbread Muffins

• I love that making muffins such as these do not require the stand mixer.
• Simple preparation, a few dirty bowls. Definitely no kitchen hurricane.
• They are moist, buttery and appropriately sweet. Even those who do not have a sweet tooth will find these delightful.
• Simple ingredients.  You may not have the cornmeal at hand but the rest of the ingredients are pantry staples.

These are a family favorite. They win over brownies, cookies, and cakes most of the time. Squeeze in baking these cornbread muffins sometime and you will find making them more and more often.

Enjoy!
