Jalapeno Cheddar Blue Corn Muffins

     You may remember that I received a package in the mail from Bob's Red Mill with several of their products.  Last week I used the Gluten Free Vanilla Cake mix to make Gluten Free Vanilla Cupcakes.  This week I wanted to try the Blue Cornmeal.  I initially thought about making blue corn tortilla chips but in the end I decided on Jalapeno Cheddar Blue Corn Muffins.

     Last week was Cinco de Mayo and I made stacked enchiladas for dinner and needed a side dish to go along with them.  I went to make cornbread muffins when I spotted the package of blue cornmeal in the cupboard.  I quickly switched to making blue corn muffins.  When I was in the refrigerator I saw the jalapenos and ended up making jalapeno cheddar blue corn muffins.


      These muffins were really good but very different from the baking mixes I normally make my cornbread from.  I'd say these are the authentic cornmeal muffins and they were delicious.  The blue color was bright and unusual but I also thought it made them fun.  They were slightly spicy from the jalapenos, cheesy from the cheddar, and had a great texture from the cornmeal.

       Don't forget to stop by again next Friday to see my final recipe made from Bob's Red Mill products along with a chance to win a box of their products!
