Instructions
First, add the flaxseed meal and water to a large bowl, mix well and keep aside for 2 mins. Meanwhile de-seed the jalapeno. Thinly slice half of the jalapeno and then finely dice the remaining half. Keep aside.
By now the flaxseed meal and water would have turned slimy like egg. Add the melted butter / oil and milk. Use a fork or hand whisk and beat until frothy with bubbles forming on top.
Now add the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt to the wet ingredients. Fold until both the dry and wet ingredients are just combined. Do not over mix.
Now add the sweet corn kernels, diced jalapenos to the batter and fold well until combined.
Preheat the oven to 400 F. Grease or line a muffin pan with olive oil. Fill ¾th of the muffin cups with batter. Top of each cup with a piece of sliced jalapeno.
Bake for about 25 mins until the muffin is cooked through.
Enjoy warm.
Notes | FAQ
- Adjust sugar and jalapeno quantity as per your taste. - Adjust the baking time as per your oven settings. Inserting a toothpick at the middle of the muffin should come out clean. - Flaxseed meal is a substitute for egg. If you are not a vegetarian, you can replace Flaxseed meal + water with 1 Large egg. - I used fresh jalapeno. You can also use the pickled one.
