Organic sweet Cornbread muffins


So I just created the most awesome muffins tonight for my family and I wanted to share. If you love sweet cornbread, you will love love this! 

*Remember organic is my recommendation, but not necessary! You will enjoy this recipe with whatever type of ingredients you choose! 

Organic Sweet Cornbread muffins

1 cup organic Whole Wheat flour                  
3/4 cup organic cornmeal
¼ cup ground Flaxseed                 
2/3 cup organic cane sugar
1 tbs organic honey        
1 teaspoon Sea salt
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder (Aluminum free)
1 cage free egg
1 cup milk
1/3 cup Canola oil
Chia Seeds
Add a small spoonful of any organic nut butter to the middle before baking for an added treat for your kiddos lunch or a snack for you. (We use peanut butter and sunflower butter)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). For muffins use paper cupcake liners (no need to grease or spray oil). If making cornbread…lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan.  
In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, honey, salt and baking powder. Stir in egg, milk and oil until well combined.
Pour batter into liners or prepared pan. Sprinkle with Chia Seeds for added nutritional value and for a nice little crunch. (By the way my kids loved the chia seeds)
Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. (Personally I bake until they are golden brown around the edges and top)

  1. I'm going to try and make this tonight, will use organic butter instead of canola oil and will omit the seeds. Thanks for posting the recipe!
