You all know by now that I will be participating in the Indian Food Bloggers(IFBM) meet this Friday. Yup, I am very much excited regarding the same. Most of my close friends know by now the cause of my happiness these days. I have been cooking, blending and baking a lot of things. Thanks to the contests happening at IFBM. It made me think and innovate. I was able to make time despite the hectic schedule just to ensure that I participate in these contests.
There is another exciting contest happening at IFBM. It is the Freedom Tree Baking Contest where we have to bake a dish with fresh corn. Ahh, this was a real challenge for me as baking is a subject where I have to learn a lot. I thought I’ll wait for Eid holiday to make something exciting. I had seen a post of Savory muffins on the Internet and since then I wanted to try it. I modified the original recipe and this was the best opportunity for me to try this Savory Veggie Corn Cheese Muffins recipe. So today evening I went out shopping with a list of ingredients that I would need.
When I saw that all the shops in my layout are closed on account of Eid, I thought I’ll give up. I bought American Corn on cob from the local vegetable vendors with some hope to find all purpose flour somewhere. I had almost given up when at 7.00 PM my neighbor, a friendly Sardarji aunt came home. I told her about the IFBM and the contests. She told me some recipes with corn. She does not know to bake but she gave me several ideas, like kebabs and rolls.
I told her about the corn muffins and she liked the idea. Just then I told her that I don’t have maida at home. She said “Don’t worry, my son is gone to MORE megastore, he will get”. She called him immediately and asked him to get a packet of maida. Done, now was the task to bake something interesting. I extracted the corn kernels from the cob and wiped up the ingredients. The Savory Veggie Corn Cheese Muffins are getting ready in the microwave.
My hubby is working late in office despite it being a public holiday. I just pinged him and told him, that I have baked something interesting, come soon. It is 12.00 AM and I am waiting for him to come home and taste these muffins.
Ingredients: Makes : 6-8 muffins
1 cup All purpose flour/maida
1/2 cup sweet corn kernels

Add the ingredients from bowl1 to bowl2 mixing slowly.
Pre-heat the microwave in convection mode to 180 degree for 5 Min’s.

lovely muffins..
Tried these last night… did u fill the mould till the brim?? I filled them 3/4th (keeping cup cakes in mind 😀 😀 )
Then realised i had made a mistake 🙂 They tasted very good…i gonna make them again for my blog and will definitely mention you in the post 🙂
Sure 🙂
Thats nice suskouzzina. Giving credit to the recipe is a great way of gratitude. Thanks dear.
Yup you should fill it to the brim.
Can we use whole wheat flour instead of maida?
You can try. It should work Poornima.
What can we substitute for eggs ?
Hi Raksha,
This looks delicious. Would it be possible to swap the maida for whole wheat flour?
Thanks,
Lyandra
Yes sure
sure
What can be used instead of eggs here?
Hi Raksha… I tried this out yesterday and the taste was superb . However I used muffin liners and sprayed it with butter . After cooling down the muffins could not come out easily as the batter was stuck to the liners. Are these supposed to be baked directly in the muffin pan . How do I avoid the batter sticking to the liners. I skipped the egg and added some extra oil .
Yes bake them directly in muffin pan. I did not use muffin liner too.
Hey what could be a substitute for Italian seasoning? I have oregano but not sure if it would taste nice in such big quantity ( 3 tablespoons)
Use oregano it will taste good
Hi Raksha.. Could you please tell us any substitute for egg here.
hi.. can u tell the subsitute of eggs
We don’t eat egg any replacement
Try with flax seed powder.
The muffins look yummy. I’m making them for my craft group, tomorrow.
nice 🙂
Can it be baked in oven or only in microwave? Please let me know the temp for oven too.
Not tried in oven. Tried in microwave only.
Hello, I made this muffins today with modifications, used 1/4 cup yoghurt and wholemeal self raising flour. The muffins turned out scrumptious and will definitely be making again
