Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups self-rising cornmeal
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 cup cooking oil
  • 1 cup cream-style corn
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Mix together the self-rising cornmeal, sugar, cream-style corn, chopped onion, sour cream, and cooking oil until well combined.
  2. Fill thoroughly greased muffin tins 3/4 full.
  3. Bake at 400°F for 20 to 25 minutes or until brown.

Tips & Substitutions

For a hint of extra flavor, consider adding shredded cheese or diced jalapeños to the batter. If you prefer a slightly sweeter cornbread, increase the sugar by a tablespoon. You can substitute regular corn for cream-style corn, but you may need to add a little extra moisture. This recipe can be adapted for gluten-free diets by using gluten-free cornmeal.

Serving Suggestions

Serve this cornbread warm with butter for a delightful treat. It pairs beautifully with chili or soup, making it a perfect side for a cozy meal. Consider serving it alongside dishes like Frankfurter Casserole or as a base for a savory breakfast with eggs and bacon. Enjoy it with honey or jam for a sweet twist.

Storage & Reheating

Store leftover cornbread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, wrap in foil and warm in a 350°F oven for about 10-15 minutes or microwave individual pieces for 20-30 seconds until heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I bake this cornbread in a different pan?

Absolutely! While muffin tins are great for individual servings, you can bake this cornbread in an 8x8 inch or 9x9 inch baking dish. Just adjust the baking time to 25-30 minutes, checking for doneness when the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
