Blueberry Corn Muffins


Makes 6 large muffins

This batter can be baked in jumbo or oversize muffin tins. Frozen blueberries may substitute fresh.




1 cup (2 sticks) plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature

3/4 cup sugar plus 2 tablespoons for sprinkling

3 tablespoons honey

2 large eggs

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup yellow cornmeal

3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 cup milk

1 cup blueberries


1. Heat oven to 375°. Place a Silpat (French nonstick baking mat) or parchment paper on a

baking sheet; place six 2 3/4-by-2-inch pastry rings on it. Cut parchment paper into six

10-by-3-inch strips; use them to line molds (paper will extend above rims).


2. Place softened butter, 3/4 cup sugar, and honey in bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the

paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until fluffy, about 1 minute. Add eggs; beat 1 minute

more.


3. Whisk flour, cornmeal, and baking powder together in a medium bowl; add to butter mixture in

mixer bowl. Beat until combined. Slowly pour in milk, beating on low, until just combined. Fold in

blueberries. Divide dough among molds (do not pack too firmly; each will take about 1 cup). Brush

tops with cold water; sprinkle 1 teaspoon sugar over each.


4. Bake until tops are browned, centers are set, and a cake tester inserted in center of muffin

comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Let cool in pans 5 minutes. Tie kitchen twine around muffins

to hold parchment. Serve at once.
