For must of us, January is cold! Nothing warms me up better than a big bowl of chili!  A sweet corn muffin dipped into a bowl of spicy chili has to be the one of my favorite comfort foods. ( Yes, yes I know, I can’t eat any of this right now, but I’m looking out for you guys!) I found these little corn muffins on marthastewart.com. Not only are they low in fat, but they’re low in calories too- and they are delicious!  One of her readers replaced some of the sour cream with vanilla yogurt, so I gave it a try and replaced ALL the sour cream with low-fat vanilla yogurt. I also eliminated what little sugar there was in the recipe because the yogurt really sweetens it up!


Here it is:

In a bowl mix together:
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup corn meal (yellow)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
In another bowl whisk:
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 cups low- fat vanilla yogurt
  • 1 – 10 ounce bag of corn kernels, thawed and dried
Combine both bowls. Be careful not to over stir!
Spray small muffin tins with olive oil spray and spoon batter into prepared tins.
  • Bake at 425  for 10 – 15 minutes, or until tops have browned a touch.
I like to make these ahead. Right before I serve them I bake them again for 3 – 5 minutes at 400.
Enjoy ! Thanks Martha!
