Corn Bread Bites

Like Pam, I am excited for Autumn to arrive. Last week we made my chili recipe which I posted last year, but needed something new to go with it.  We usually make Buttermilk Corn Bread, but I happened to find this recipe not long ago and needed a dish to try it out with, so that is what I did.
I use a mini muffin pan for this recipe which turned out perfect.  The kids thought these were great and had fun with the bite size portions!  A quick and easy side dish for chili or whatever you are having for dinner.

Corn Bread Bites

 from bakeorbreak.com

  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 Tablespoon sugar (I added 2 tbsp)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder (I omitted this)
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 1 (8 & 3/4 ounce) can cream-stlye corn
  • 1 large egg
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray mini muffins pans (recipe makes 36 muffins) and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and chili powder. In a separate bowl, combine cheese, sour cream, onions, corn, and egg. Add to flour mixture, stirring just until moistened.
Spoon batter into muffin pans. Bake for about 10 minutes or until browned. Cool in pan for about 2 minutes. Then, remove from pans and cool muffins on wire rack.

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies.  It was love at first bite.  Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates.  I love them so much !  However, there are two things I didn't like about them.  1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive.  I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate. 

Healthier Chocolate Banana Muffins

 I know, I know.  We already have like 5 banana muffins posted on this blog.  I have put off posting this recipe because of that fact, but here's the thing.  While those muffins are all delicious and great in their own way, when I have ripe bananas you know I'm either making these muffins or banana bread.  More often, these muffins because they are perfect for a grab and go snack or breakfast.  My family LOVES these muffins! They have such a deep chocolate flavor and are so moist.  What my family doesn't think about, but I love, are that these muffins are healthier than your average muffin.  They are made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, greek yogurt for extra protein, and have less sugar that most other muffins.  These are best warm (they can be reheated in the microwave for 10 seconds) and those bites with melted chocolate chips are the absolute best!
