Very Moist Corn Muffins

Image
Last year for Christmas I made a great corn pudding, sort of a blend between pudding and cornbread. The recipe was wonderful and everyone loved it, the only problem is I cannot find the recipe. I have looked high and low and I'm absolutely clueless as to where it came from or where I put it. I have looked through the hundred plus cookbooks I own and yielded no results-- Oh well. On the bright side though, I found this one in the process and after I made a few changes , I was very pleasantly surprised. Putting a small dollop of sour cream on top made them very moist. And yes, this time I have saved the recipe...I knew this blog would come in handy for something! :) Very Moist Corn Muffins 1/2 cup flour 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal 3 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 large egg 1 1/2 cups sour cream 2 cups frozen corn 1/2 cup sour cream for topping Preheat oven to 400 F 1.
