Corn Oat Muffins

Corn Oat Muffins are the perfect accompaniment to a warm bowl of chili or soup!

I am always trying to find healthier ways to cook, and especially bake. I found this cookbook second-hand at a thrift store or yard sale. It has recipes that are heart healthy. I have been trying recipes from it for a few years now and when I was looking for a corn muffin recipe to go with chili, I found this recipe for Corn Oat Muffins.

The recipe called for egg substitute, but I just used eggs instead. I have never really used egg substitute and I didn’t want to buy it only to use in this recipe, so I just used eggs and they still came out great.

They are probably a little more wheat than corn, but that is okay. Even though I put 3 tablespoons of brown sugar in them they still came out savory and are just slightly sweet.

The buttermilk, oats, and cornmeal.

This Chili with Beans or Creamy White Chicken Chili would be perfect with these Corn Oat Muffins!
