  • 1 1/2 cup yellow corn meal
  • 1/2 c plus 1 Tbsp granulated sugar

  • 1 portion/recipe cornbread mix clone (1/3 recipe)
  • 1 large egg, beaten, or 1/4 c aquafaba or flax/chia gel
  • 1/3-2/3 c milk or water

 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease muffin tins or line with liners.

Mix all ingredients together and fill muffin tins 1/2 full.

Bake for 15-20 minutes.
