Cornbread muffins are made using yellow cornmeal just like we use this cornmeal to make Southern style cornbread from scratch at home.

The same cornmeal is used to make these delicious cornbread muffins as well!

You can use store bought yellow cornmeal for this recipe or use homemade cornmeal if you wish.

You can read more information on how to make homemade cornmeal here.

You can make these mini cornbread muffins with cranberry sauce topping (made using leftover cranberry sauce) for a quick snack or you can prepare this in advance and enjoy it for next day breakfast.

The delicious and colorful cranberry sauce topping is totally optional, so if you do not have cranberry sauce you can skip it too, but the addition of cranberry sauce on top add a tangy flavor to the mini muffins and add a nice, bright touch of color so you wouldn’t need any additional toppings.

We just put a little of the prepared cranberry sauce (recipe here) on top for each muffin and as the muffins get baked, sauce will get cooked again lightly forming kind of jam over the top of the muffins which look lovely and taste delicious.

You can enjoy these cornbread muffins as they are or you can enjoy them with even more cranberry sauce on the side!

I used homemade fresh cranberry sauce to use in this mini cornbread muffins.

You can use any leftover cranberry sauce that you may have at home, the best being homemade fresh cranberry sauce or you may also use store bought cranberry sauce (available to buy online from here) or use any other sauce for toppings like blueberry sauce or anything that you might like.

Or you can just enjoy these delicious cornbread muffins even without any toppings as they are delicious on their own.

How To Make Mini Cornbread Muffins With Cranberry Sauce Topping?

We use the following ingredients to make this easy and delicious mini cornbread muffins from scratch at home.

Ingredients to make mini cornbread muffins with cranberry sauce topping

1.5 cups all purpose flour

1/2 cup cornmeal

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 cup sugar

1 stick butter softened

1 large eggs

1 cup milk

For topping

2 tablespoons cranberry sauce adjust as you need

Step By Step Instructions

In a bowl, mix together the dry ingredients – flour, cornmeal, baking powder and sugar until well mixed.

In another bowl, beat the egg very well, add the softened butter and mix well.

Also add milk and vanilla essence to the egg butter mixture, mix very well until well combined.

Slowly add the wet mixture to the dry flour mixture to form the batter without any lumps.

Preheat the oven to 400 degree Fahrenheit.

Add spoonfuls of batter (I used almost 2 teaspoons but you can use a little less also) to the mini muffin molds until the batter is all finished.

Top the batter in each muffin mold with a little cranberry sauce. I added about 1/4 teaspoon of cranberry sauce on top of the batter in each muffin mold.

Bake for about 18 to 20 minutes until a toothpick inserted at the center of the muffin comes out clean.

Allow the muffins to cool down, enjoy while its still warm or at room temperature as you wish.

You can also refrigerate the muffins for a couple of days if you like so you can enjoy them for breakfast as well.
