I have a muffin tin with square cups in it and the bottoms have little metal inserts that come out. I decided to use this pan to make square muffins for a change. These muffins are light and fluffy but have a bit of a crunch from the cornmeal. You could add some nuts or raisins to these if you wish.

How To Make wheat germ and cornmeal muffins

  • 1
    Preheat your oven to 400'F. I put my temperature to 375'F because I live at 5,000 feet.
  • 2
    Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper cups. Combine the flour, wheat germ, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt together in a bowl.
  • 3
    Combine the egg and milk, then mix in the coconut oil.
  • 4
    Stir the liquid ingredients well and then make a well in the dry ingredients and pour the liquid in all at once.
  • 5
    Combine the liquid with the dry ingredients until just incorporated. The batter should be lumpy.
  • 6
    Fill each muffin cup 2/3 full.
  • 7
    Bake for 20 minutes or until the tops of the muffins are lightly browned.
  • 8
    Serve warm plain or with a little vegan margarine or jam. Enjoy!
