Classic Cornbread Muffins made Vegan! Top with butter and maple syrup or honey and enjoy this flavorful mouthful!
So true story, I've never been much for cornbread... Until... I'm not sure actually, I suddenly had a random craving for them? Nick and Mom love them but me never really so much...
But then! the secret I need to share with all you skeptical cornbread muffin peeps like me... (Of course if you love cornbread already you'll love this anyways)
😉
but the secret to making them actually taste amazing to us that aren't really cornbread people, Topping them with butter and maple syrup O-M-G!
It's like an explosion of flavor and texture in your mouth!
Ok, that might not really be a secret cause all you cornbread muffin lovers probably already do that, but hey I never did and mannnn does it make a difference! All these years missing out on such an amazing lil muffin, No more!
It's like grainy textured from the cornmeal
Crunchy outside if you bake them long enough
Soft inside
Buttery smooth
Moist + Sweet from the maple syrup
Sweet+Corn flavor makes a happy mouth and tummy!
These would be perfect for this time of season with the holidays and family gathering even a great muffin to bring with you to a gathering!
