Whole Wheat Corn Muffins (first attempt)

October 15, 2009

My first batch of whole wheat corn muffins was encouraging, but not perfect. When it’s perfect, I’ll share the recipe. :) In the meantime, here are my notes for next time.

1. Canned blueberries are nowhere near as delicious as fresh, frozen, or even dried. Bargain = fail.
2. The wheaty texture was good, but the muffins stick to the muffin papers horribly. Next time grease the pan with butter and bake them direct for that crunchy bottom.
3. 1/3c of maple syrup is not quite enough sweetener to effectively replace 1c. of sugar even though I do want to reduce the sweetness. I had been concerned that using a liquid sweetener might make the batter too runny, but actually the whole wheat flour takes care of that problem quite nicely.
4. Cutting the salt in half works perfectly well.
