• Remove from oven and remove muffins from tin.
• Cool them on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 400°F.
• Whisk together milk, egg, and butter in a small bowl. Whisk together remaining ingredients in a large bowl, then add milk mixture to dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.
• Divide among 12 greased (1/2-cup) muffin cups. Bake until golden and a tester comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool in pan on a rack 5 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 450 degrees. Put a 12-cup muffin tin (with standard-sized molds of 12-cup capacity) in oven to heat while preparing batter.
• Microwave creamed corn in a 1-quart Pyrex-type measuring cup to a full boil (or in a medium saucepan over medium heat). Stir in 1 cup of the cornmeal to make a very thick, pasty mush. If the mush is not stiff, microwave an additional 30 seconds or so. Whisk in buttermilk, then eggs and finally butter.
• Mix remaining cornmeal with flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and soda in a medium bowl. Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until just combined.
• Remove muffin tin from oven; coat with non-stick cooking spray. Divide batter evenly among cups (a spring-action ice cream scoop works well).
• Bake until golden brown on sides and bottom, about 15 minutes. Turn onto a wire rack; let cool 5 minutes. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously grease a 12-cup muffin pan or a giant 6-cup muffin pan with butter.
• Cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Heat the 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallions and cook until slightly wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Whisk the egg, broth, milk, olive oil, sugar, mustard and salt in a large bowl. Gently stir in the flour and baking powder until evenly combined.
• Fold in the cheese, cooked scallions and cooked bacon.
• Divide the mixture among the muffin cups and bake until the muffins puff up, are golden around the edges and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes for a 12-cup muffin pan or 25 to 27 minutes for a giant 6-cup muffin pan.
• Let the muffins cool 5 minutes in the pan, then invert onto a wire a rack before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees F (375 degrees F for dark pan). Coat 24 miniature (1 3/4-inch) or 8 standard muffin cups lightly with no-stick cooking spray.
• Combine cornbread mix, mustard, milk, sour cream and egg in large bowl. Stir until smooth. Stir in cheese and bacon. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full.

• Stir in the scallions, salt, and pepper; cook until the scallions are heated through, about 1 minute.
• Transfer the mixture to a paper-towel lined plate; let cool.
• In a bowl, whisk the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together.
• In another bowl, whisk the sour cream, milk, sugar, melted butter, and eggs together until combined.
• Gently fold the sour cream mixture into the flour mixture with a rubber spatula until just combined (do not overmix).
• Gently fold in the bacon mixture and 1 1/2 cups of cheddar cheese.
• Using a greased 1/3 cup measure, portion the batter into each muffin cup.
• Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheddar over the tops of the muffins.
• Bake until golden brown and a pick comes out with just a few crumbs attached, 15-20 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through the baking.
