Preparation
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter 12 large muffin cups.
- In a mixing bowl combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt.
- In a separate bowl beat the eggs lightly, then whisk in the milk and melted butter. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the egg mixture. Stir gently, just until combined. Stir in the corn and cheese.
- Spoon the mixture into the muffin cups, filling each about three-fourths full.
- Bake the muffins for 15 minutes, then reduce the heat to 375 degrees and bake 10 minutes longer, until the tops are golden brown and spring back when touched lightly.
- Cool the muffins in the pans on a rack for five minutes, then transfer to a basket and serve at once.
