Re: [CnD] preparing corn muffins.

[Jan via Cookinginthedark]

The recipe I used to have for corn muffins had 1/2 cup of sugar. I like them
a bit sweeter too.

I add a couple of tablespoons of sugar to my cornbread or  muffin batter 
when I make them...a trick Grandma taught me that she used to make her
cornbread and muffins a little more tasty!

Plus listen to the next Cooking In The Dark show, Individual Ghost Cheese

First grease the cups in that pan or you'll have a bad time getting muffins out 
and no technique will help there.  If you have measuring cups, I would put 
batter in the quarter cup measure and transfer that way into each cup of the 
pan.  If you have a cooky sheet, I'd also put the muffin pan on top of it in 
the oven to prevent any spill over messing up your oven.

Hi Jeffrey, I use an ice cream scoop, or a 1/3-cup measure to put the batter 
into the wells of the muffin pan. I also use a canning funnel.
A canning funnel is a kind of funnel with a huge opening at the bottom.
Surrounding that opening (which is the size of the  top of the typical mason 
jar, is a kind of shield (the top of the funnel) and that prevents you from 
spilling the contents you are pouring or ladeling inside the jar on the outside 
of the jar. A canning funnel is particularly useful for filling muffin tins 
with muffin or cupcake batter because it prevents you from spilling batter on 
the outside of the well. Just move it from well to well as you fill each one.

Hope this makes sense, and hope it helps.

You can buy a canning funnel at a hardware store or a grocery store which sells 
canning supplies.

Here's a link to a canning funnel at Amazon.com:

from the scoop right into the pans. But you have to use your fingers to tell
where the batter is going. I don't know any other way. I haven't made them
in a long time. But that's what I did. Or, you can make them in a square

Drained canned corn can even replace the sugar if you like.  I mostly

Hi.

I generally use an ice cream scoop which I dip in the batter, level off with my 
left hand and carefully bring the scoop to the first muffin cup on the pan. I 
have already greased the pan of course. I find I have trouble using little 
paper muffin cups because I tend to get some batter between paper cup and 
muffin pan. I hope you find what works for you. What muffin recipe do you use?
I have found when making cornbread or muffins that I prefer them with only one 
tablespoon of sugar, more like southern corn muffins and not as much like cake.

Re: [CnD] preparing corn muffins.

[Penny Reeder via Cookinginthedark]

Hi Jeffrey, I use an ice cream scoop, or a 1/3-cup measure to put the
batter into the wells of the muffin pan. I also use a canning funnel.
A canning funnel is a kind of funnel with a huge opening at the
bottom. Surrounding that opening (which is the size of the  top of the
typical mason jar, is a kind of shield (the top of the funnel) and
that prevents you from spilling the contents you are pouring or
ladeling inside the jar on the outside of the jar. A canning funnel is
particularly useful for filling muffin tins with muffin or cupcake
batter because it prevents you from spilling batter on the outside of
the well. Just move it from well to well as you fill each one.

Hope this makes sense, and hope it helps.

You can buy a canning funnel at a hardware store or a grocery store
which sells canning supplies.

Here's a link to a canning funnel at Amazon.com:

Re: [CnD] preparing corn muffins.

[Janet Brown via Cookinginthedark]

Hi.

I generally use an ice cream scoop which I dip in the batter, level off with my 
left hand and carefully bring the scoop to the first muffin cup on the pan. I 
have already greased the pan of course. I find I have trouble using little 
paper muffin cups because I tend to get some batter between paper cup and 
muffin pan. I hope you find what works for you. What muffin recipe do you use?
I have found when making cornbread or muffins that I prefer them with only one 
tablespoon of sugar, more like southern corn muffins and not as much like cake.

First grease the cups in that pan or you'll have a bad time getting 
muffins out and no technique will help there.  If you have measuring 
cups, I would put batter in the quarter cup measure and transfer that 
way into each cup of the pan.  If you have a cooky sheet, I'd also put 
the muffin pan on top of it in the oven to prevent any spill over 
messing up your oven.
