Garlic and Sun-Dried Tomato Corn Muffin
Filed Under: Food/Recipes

One of my most favorite cooking shows is”Everyday Italian” on the Food Network. I was watching it the other day and saw the best recipe for these garlic and sun-dried tomato corn muffins. I experimented and made them today and they were to die for! I’m going to make them for Thanksgiving as a great new side to the usual dishes.
2 (8 1/2-ounce) packages corn muffin mix (recommended: Jiffy)
2 cups frozen whole kernel corn, thawed
3 garlic cloves, minced
2/3 cup diced sun-dried tomatoes (from an 8-ounce jar)
2/3 cup buttermilk
2/3 cup sour cream
2 large eggs
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease 2 muffin tins.
In a large bowl combine the muffin mix, corn, garlic, and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir to combine. In a small bowl whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, and eggs until well blended. Add the buttermilk mixture to the muffin mix. Stir to combine. Spoon the mix into the muffin tins, filling up the cups about halfway. Bake until golden brown on top, about 15 minutes.
Give it a try! If you like the recipe, you can check out all of her other recipes on the Everyday Italian website.
