Muffins Recipe ‹ Savory Fall Corn Muffins

Inspired by my Basic Corn Muffins recipe, I used applesauce, Cheddar cheese and fresh sage for a savory fall corn muffin.

Ingredients

• 1 ¼ cups yellow cornmeal
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• ¼ cup white sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1 egg
• ¾ cup buttermilk
• ½ cup Mott's® Original Applesauce
• ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• ½ cup diced apple
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
2. Mix cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and white pepper in a bowl.
3. In separate bowl, mix together the egg, buttermilk, and applesauce. Add to dry ingredients; stir to combine.
4. Stir in Cheddar cheese, apple, and sage; mix thoroughly. Spoon into prepared muffin pan.
5. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 15 minutes.
