These were my children's favorite "everyday" muffins.
They are good served with beans (either baked beans or chili) and taste wonderful with a little butter and honey for breakfast.

Cornmeal Muffins

  • 1 C. sifted all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 C. sugar
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 C. yellow cornmeal
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 C. milk
  • 1/4 C. shortening.

    1. Sift together the dry ingredients. Then mix in the remaining ingredients.

    2. Beat with a rotary beater or electric mixer just till smooth. (Don't overbeat or your muffins will have peaks on top--they taste the same, but they look funny!)

    3. Fill well greased muffin tins about 2/3 full.

    4. Bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes. Makes about a dozen
