These Cheddar Corn Muffins are light and moist, with a mild but irresistible cheese accent. So tasty and moist with just the right amount of sweetness.
The cheddar is the perfect touch.
They are equally good served for breakfast or with chili.
If you want a more traditional corn muffin, just leave out the cheese.
