Ingredient
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup cornmeal
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans
Direction
- Heat oven to 400°F. Line 12 regular-size muffin cups with paper baking cups.
- In large bowl, mix flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. In small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons flour mixture and the cranberries; set aside.
- In medium bowl, beat egg with wire whisk until blended. Beat in milk and oil.
- Make a well in center of dry ingredients. Add egg mixture to dry ingredients; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened (batter will be thin). Stir in cranberries and pecans. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.
- Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until lightly browned and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 1 minute; remove from pan to cooling rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
