These Gluten-Free basil Corn Muffins are so good, you'd better make a double batch. Top them with a smear a goat cheese, and they're all kinds of good.

Yes, it is. Clearly, itโs beenย muffin week at my house. Which I highly recommend, btw. And the best way to end this muffin-o-rama is with this beaut. Itโs aย gluten-free basil corn muffin, then you stuff it with goat cheese. STUFF IT WITH GOAT CHEESE. And here I was just using butter this whole time.
I found this recipe in one of those Martha Stewart type magazines. And again, since I seem to have a load ofย gluten-free corn bread mix,ย (try this one from Pamela's) I just tweaked the recipe to make it gluten-free using my handy dandy mix. If you have gf flour and gf cornmeal on hand, just know that you use ยผ cup cornmeal and 2 cups of all-purpose gluten-free flour. Honestly, do what you like because youโre going to be putting goat cheese inside. Really.
Sure this is a fantastic muffin, but if you want to rock your world and everyone elseโs within a 15-mile radius, pair it with anย Italian tray bake and roasted asparagus. Yep.
I love dinner. I freaking love it.
So yeah, this is a superior muffin for a superior meal. Make it wisely.
