Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins – these moist and delicious muffins are so quick and easy to make using a homemade mix.
I’ve mentioned that I like to keep a batch of homemade cornbread mix on hand in my pantry. That way I can quickly and easily make a batch of homemade cornbread, muffins or topping anytime I like. I’ve shared some recipes using my homemade mix, including Orange Honey Cornbread and Tex Mex Chicken Casserole with Cornbread Topping.
Today, I have a new recipe to share that uses my homemade cornbread mix, these soft and delicious Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins.
How to Make Homemade Cornbread Mix
To make a batch of homemade cornbread mix, simply whisk together flour, corn meal, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl. Then transfer the mixture to an airtight container. From there, just scoop out what you need to easily whip up homemade cornbread, topping or muffins such as these Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins.
Last Friday, my 4-year old twin girls were in the mood to bake. We were having chili for dinner that evening, so I decided we would make a batch of cornbread. I also had some cans of creamed corn in the pantry, so I decided to use some to make Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins.
How to Make Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins
These Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins are so easy to make and take only a few minutes to prepare. My girls mixed together some of the homemade cornbread mix, melted butter, eggs and creamed corn in a large mixing bowl. I then transferred the batter to a muffin pan and baked it in the preheated oven for about 12-13 minutes.
The resulting Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins are so moist and delicious and were a wonderful accompaniment to our chili on Friday evening. The leftovers were great for breakfast.

- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-13 minutes or until cooked through (a toothpick inserted in a muffin should come out clean).
Notes
Use the remaining Homemade Cornbread Mix to make more Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins or to make cornbread topping for casseroles or to make regular cornbread or cornbread muffins.
To make regular cornbread or cornbread muffins using the Homemade Cornbread Mix, add 2 cups of the mix, ½ stick (¼ cup) melted butter, 1 cup 1% milk, 2 beaten eggs and ¼ cup honey to a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Transfer batter to a 12-cup muffin tin or 8-inch x 8-inch baking pan and place in the preheated 400°F oven. The muffins will bake for about 12-13 minutes, the cornbread will bake for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
These were delicious. I found this recipe after opening a can of creamed corn instead or regular corn for a Mexican dish. .I’m not one to waste
I recall my mother using creamed corn in her recipe and Ive been on the hunt for a good recipe. Please clarify…
The muffin recipe calls for mix, eggs, butter, and creamed corn. The notes indicate you also add honey and milk.
Is the honey and milk part of the muffin recipe or an option?
Hi, the recipe for Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins does not contain honey or milk. However, if you make this recipe, you’ll have leftover cornbread mix. You can use the leftover mix to make regular cornbread or cornbread muffins, just follow the directions in the notes, which do include honey and milk.

Tried this recipe ytd night, and it was the best thing ever to satisfy my kenny rogers corn muffin when there is no such thing to be found in Melbourne near me. I was so happy! Hehe and gobbled up 3 fresh from the oven 🙂 thanks for sharing this really lovely recipe
I made mini muffins to bring to a dinner party hosted by friends service smoked pork ribs. They were absolutely delicious. Thank you for the recipe!
Have you made with a mini muffin pan? Wondering what the adjusted baking time would be.

Hi Beth, I haven’t tried this particular recipe with a mini muffin pan, though based on other similar recipes, I’d suggest 15 – 22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean. If you give it a try, please let me know how it goes!
Joy, this is really a great recipe. I will make this at the next chance i get.

Joy, that recipe looks so yummy! I’ll have to try that one. Thanks for sharing.
These were amazing! The only change I made was I added some shredded cheese before cooking.. and that’s because cheese makes everything better 😉
Hi Shay, I’m so glad to hear that you enjoyed these, cheese sounds like a wonderful addition!
Just made 3 batches! Such a fun recipe. They look and taste amazing! If you want a muffin with strong corn flavor, this recipe is the one! Thank you!
Hi Jessica, I’m so glad you enjoyed these!

Amazing. My kids ate 1 muffin each and left about 3 left. They clearly enjoyed it.
Hi Jackie, I’m so glad to hear that your family enjoyed these muffins, thanks for letting me know!
It looks very good, we will try this later.
Thanks Irene, hope you give it a try and enjoy!
I will try this! I have cornflour in my cupboard and hopefully its not yet expired. Such lovely colour. I will share with you if ever I manage to do this this week =)
Thanks for linking up!

Oh good, hope you give it a try and enjoy, let me know how it goes!
Hi, Joy. Did I read the recipe correctly: 3 TBS baking powder? Seems like it’s over-powering.
Hi Sasha,
The recipe is for a homemade cornbread mix which can then be used to make multiple batches of Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins (or to make cornbread topping for casseroles or to make regular cornbread or cornbread muffins). The mix makes about 6 cups and does include 3 tablespoons of baking powder (you can reduce the amount if you find it overpowering). You can then use part of the mix (2 cups) to make a batch of Creamed Corn Cornbread Muffins. Hope you give it a try and enjoy!
Hmm they look and sound delicious can I have 3 please heheh!
Have a muffintastic week 🙂
