Cornmeal Muffins/Cornmeal Sticks (AKA Cornpone) make a tasty addition to a meal. The cornpone mold helps them crisp up on the outside, making them even better than cornbread. It’s a simple 30-minute recipe.
Muffins made in a cornpone pan are the best cornmeal muffins!
Cornmeal Muffins (AKA Cornpone) are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside.
I love these Cornmeal Sticks with any soup or casserole. The recipe comes from one of my favorite basic cookbooks, James Beard’s American Cookery. We inherited a cornpone pan. It’s the best thing ever. Cornmeal muffins baked in this pan are extra special and SO good.
Whenever I feel like I’m coming down with a cold or I simply feel “puny” (as they say here in Virginia), I make Mexican Chicken Soup, my favorite illness fighter. Usually, voilá! No cold materializes. Of course, you don’t have to be sick to eat soup! Add these cornmeal muffins/sticks for a super meal.
What You Need
For best results, get a cornpone pan, but you can use a muffin pan if you have to. You’ll need measuring cups and spoons, a bowl, a sifter or sieve, and a whisk. Do yourself a favor and buy the best tools you can afford.
