Moist Buttermilk Corn Muffins With Berries
Can you believe that Summer is over? Just when it was starting to get good, it’s over. The day I scheduled my weekly alarm clock to 6:30 am, I knew that reality was just around the corner.
Now we’re 2 weeks in and I’m already running to the craft store with my oldest daughter for a special class project. GRRR 🙁
I’ll quit whining. Let’s talk about muffins, shall we?
According to my daughters, these Moist Buttermilk Corn Muffins are the best ones they’ve ever had in their life.
Not to brag, but these guys came out really good.
To think that the secret ingredient is Kellogg’s Corn Pops.
I ground up the cereal and added it to my batter. That’s the “corn” part of these muffins. Isn’t it clever?
It tastes just like corn muffins but with a softer crumb and a special sweetness. The berries tie all the flavors together and brightens them up.
You can use whatever fruit you have at home: peaches, mangoes, nectarines, strawberries, apples, pears, bananas, etc.
This recipe came to me last Sunday when I had a corn muffin craving in the morning. You get those cravings, doncha?
Anyways, I was looking for cornmeal in my pantry and couldn’t find it.
Then I had an AHA moment when I saw the Corn Pops Cereal. I thought “Well, it’s made out corn, it’s tastes like corn, it’s delicious, so why not?
It was a risk! I didn’t know if this experiment was going to work, I was substituting a type of flour for ground cereal.
Kind of crazy, and a waste of ingredients, all for a morning craving. And no, I’m not pregnant, I just like to eat bake.
But alas, it worked!
When these corn muffins came out of the oven we were astounded. They looked like muffins! Then we tried them and oh yum, amazing.
Oh, did I mention that you can SAVE MONEY on these muffins? That’s right! below you will find coupons to print at home that will come in handy for back to school.
Hurry! because these expire soon.
Also, check your Valpak envelope in the mail for additional savings. Gotta love a deal!
