Cornmeal Muffins

Original Day Family Cookbook

My favorite that I stole from Hayden Pearson. These are also good with blueberries added.

Ingredients:

• • 1 cup sugar

  • 1/3 cup yellow cornmeal

  • 1-2/3 cups flour plus 2 tablespoon

  • 2-¼ teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon allspice

  • 1 beaten egg

  • 1 cup milk

  • ¼ cup melted butter plus 1 tablespoon

Directions:

Mix sugar and cornmeal. Sift in flour, baking powder, salt, and allspice. Blend well. Add beaten egg mixed with milk and butter. Stir well but do not heat. Fill greased muffin tins two-thirds full. Bake at 400^o for about 16-18 min. (maybe longer).
