Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cup cornmeal
  • 1 cup gluten free all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 egg room temperature
  • 1 cup greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk room temperature
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 5 tbsp butter melted and cooled

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350° F and grease a muffin tin or line with muffin liners.
  • Melt the butter in the microwave, then set it aside and allow it to cool to room temperature.
  • In a medium bowl, stir the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, yogurt, milk, and oil together; then, add in the cooled butter.
  • Pour the dry ingredients into the wet and combine with a rubber spatula, only mixing until the flour just disappears (NOTE: If you over-mix, the muffins will be dense).
  • Divide the batter amongst the muffin tin and bake the muffins in the oven for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Leave the muffins in the tin for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Enjoy!
