Cornmeal flour is a coarse flour ground from dried maize or American corn and is a common staple food in United States. The cornmeal flour is extensively used for making breads (corn bread), corn fritters, as breakfast cereal or making fried fish.

To prepare this appetizing Brown Butter Pineapple Corn Muffin, firstly chop ¾ cup dried sweetened pineapple finely or use dried unsweetened pineapple plus ½ cup sugar. Throw 1 stick (1/2 cup) of unsalted butter in a heavy sauce pan on medium heat and melt the butter until slightly browned.

Do not burn the butter. As soon as the chunk of butter has melted and foam started to appear, then you have to start paying attention. What we are looking for is a light hazelnut brown color; not too dark like dark brown or not too light either. Once you get to the right color, turn off the heat and throw in all the finely chopped pineapple into the pan and mix well and just let the pineapple steep in that hot butter for 20 minutes to develop more flavor.

Set that a side and measure the dry ingredients. Mix 1 cup yellow corn meal, 1 cup all purpose flour, ½ teaspoon baking soda and ½ teaspoon fine salt into a mixing bowl. Give that a mix with a whisk for a couple of times. Set that aside and back to the wet! Once the pineapple butter mixture is cooled down to just barely warm, pore that into a mixing bowl and then add 1 cup buttermilk, 2 large eggs and mix well.

(Do not over mix) Combine the wet ingredient with the dry ingredients, "wet to dry". Well actually in this recipe it really doesn't matter which goes to which but again; don't over mix your batter. Lay out some muffin liners or cupcake liners in the muffin pan and divide your batter evenly into each liner.

Pop them into a pre-heated 375 degree oven for about 25 minutes, (depends on how big your muffins are. If they're big, maybe they will need a couple more minutes) until a toothpick or tester comes out clean. If there's dough on it, it's not done! Put it back in into the oven.

Once they are cool enough to handle, take the muffins out of the pan and let it cool down at least 10-15 minutes, because the insides are still very hot and you have to let them cook for a bit longer. Serve when they are cooled. This makes an excellent home made dish that is rich and dense yet has a nice light crumb.

Makes a heavenly slice of butter pineapple corn muffin! Enjoy Baking!
