1 C All Puropse Flour
3/4 C Masa Harina
3/4 C Cornmeal
1 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/3 C Brown Sugar
2 Eggs, whisked with a fork to combine
1 1/2 C ButterMilk
or 3/4 C Sour Cream + 3/4 C Milk
1/4 C Canola Oil
1/4 C Melted Butter
Preheat oven to 375F.
In a large bowl with a whisk, combine all dry Ingredients (including sugar)
Make a well in the center — add melted butter, oil, eggs, buttermilk (or sour-cream milk) in the center of the well. Mix well.
Add any desired mix ins (Cranberries, Pecans, Fresh Corn, Bacon, etc)

After 10 minutes, rotate muffin tray to ensure even baking.
Bake for about 20-22 minutes total.
