How do I make these Cheesy Cornbread Muffins?

For this recipe you will want to be sure you use yellow cornmeal and not pre packaged cornbread mix. The combination of the self rising flour mixed with yellow cornmeal will become the base for these cornbread muffins.

I use Land o’ Lake light butter for all of my baking recipes. I have found that it has the lowest points and it tastes amazing! You can find it at most grocery stores next to the butter. It comes in a tub-with a green lid. Be sure that it says light butter-they sell one that is regular that is made with canola oil as well-so be sure to check that it says light.

Pour batter into muffin tins about 2/3 full. Repeat until all muffin tins are filled.

Bake for 18-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.

Ingredients:

• 3 Tbsp Land o’ Lakes light butter made with canola oil
• 1/4 cup sugar substitute ( I use Lakanto Monkfruit Classic Sweetener)
• 2 eggs or 1/2 cup egg substitute 
• 1 cup unsweetened almond or cashew milk
• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 cup self rising flour ( I use Gold Medal)
• 3/4 cup light cheddar cheese ( I use Trader Joe’s shredded lite 3 cheese blend)
• 1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 12-muffin tin with non stick cooking spray.
2. In a microwavable bowl, melt butter in microwave for 30 seconds or until butter is melted, remove from microwave and add sugar substitute.
3. In a large mixing bowl combine, eggs and melted butter mixture. Beat until well combined.
4. Pour in unsweetened almond milk and stir in cornmeal, baking powder, flour, cheese and salt and stir until well blended.
5. Pour batter into muffin tins about 2/3 full. Repeat until all muffin tins are filled..
6. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.

The SmartPoint values and nutritional information is estimated and figured based off the brand of ingredients listed in the recipe using the WW app. The SmartPoint values may vary depending on the brand of ingredients used. To calculate the Smartpoint value on a recipe you will need to enter the ingredients in the WW app manually by creating a recipe using the recipe builder. The WW app does not recognize the zero point ingredients in recipes and will calculate it based only off the nutritional information; which will not be accurate.
