Ingredients

• 1 1/2 teaspoons egg replacer (dry)
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

1

Set your oven to 450°F (230°C) and prepare a six-cup muffin tin by greasing it or lining with paper cups.

2

In a small dish, mix the egg replacer with 2 tablespoons of water until smooth.

3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

4

Pour the egg replacer mixture, oil, and 1 cup water into the dry ingredients and stir just until the batter is even.

5

Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups, filling each halfway.

6

Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

Tips:
For the best results, avoid overmixing the batter—stir just until the ingredients are combined. Check the muffins a couple of minutes early, as ovens may vary; the tops should be lightly golden and spring back when touched. For a little extra flair, try adding a handful of fresh corn kernels or chopped jalapeños to the batter before baking.
