Corn, Buttermilk, and Chive Muffins

Last Sunday, I checked my favorite food blog, Smitten Kitchen, and instantly drooled over the most recent recipe: corn, buttermilk, and chive popovers. Ironically, I had all the ingredients in my kitchen. No grocery trip necessary! Sweet!

So I proceeded to make the above recipe (no adaptations were used). I used a muffin tin since I don't have a special tray for popovers. Unfortunately, my fluffy muffins turned out more like dense biscuits. Although the recipe claims that less cooking time is needed if using a muffin tray, in this instance (maybe it has something to do with our oven settings?), I think they needed more time.

It didn't matter that much though, the taste of these popover-muffin-biscuits or whatever you want to call them was great! I will definitely try again and aim for more fluffiness next time.

My blog will be taking a mini-break as I travel to Vermont for a friend's wedding. Daniele and I will be there for a long weekend. And, when we return, Daniele will be taking over some of the blogging for the next few weeks! Hello, Italian perspective.
