1 cup milk
1/3 cup shortening or butter, softened
1 egg
1 cup cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1. Heat oven to 400°. Grease 12 medium muffin cups, 2 1/2 x 1 1/4 inches, or line with paper baking cups.
2. Beat milk, egg and shortening in a medium bowl. Stir in remaining ingredients all at once just until flour is moistened (batter will be lumpy).
3. Fill muffin cups about three-fourths full. Bake until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
If you can find a muffin-top pan (they look like tiny pies, usually 6 to a pan), these are really yummy made as muffin-tops. Spray the pan with non-stick spray and fill about 2/3 full. Bake x 13-14 mins. Makes 12 muffin tops.
