MAPLE BACON CORN MUFFINS

Today, I’m serving up good ole fashioned corn muffins with a twist : Maple Bacon Corn Muffins. These maple bacon corn muffins can be eaten for any meal (breakfast, lunch or dinner). The bacon and maple syrup are flavors that are often times associated with breakfast, and corn muffins are a great bread to along with any entree for lunch or dinner. Corn muffins are essential cornbread in a smaller form or as an individual serving, and cornbread was a true staple in my home.  Every dinner had either a skillet of cornbread or corn muffins on the table.

CORN MUFFINS

What makes a great corn muffin is three fold: Flavor, Texture and Moistness.  The best ones I’ve eaten tasted almost like cupcakes because there was a touch of sweetness but the grittiness of the cornmeal changed the profile completely.  The BHG recipe for corn muffins is quite lovely.  I really enjoyed them (plural because I ate three in a row).

The twist was the addition of maple syrup and bacon that really made these perfect for breakfast.  I loved the hint of maple throughout and the little bits of bacon in each bite.  They really were fantastic.
