This started off with such an innocent thought:\u00a0I haven\u2019t had cornbread in a while\u2026 but i am thinking about making Bacon Basil Cornbread Muffins today<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

From there my mind wandered to the mound of fresh corn in my fridge.<\/p>\n

Well I should definitely add some of that.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

But I can\u2019t JUST add corn. What else\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

\"bacon\"bacon<\/p>\n

Crispy bacon? Sure.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Use the rendered bacon fat in place of butter? YES.<\/em><\/p>\n

Ok. Slow down. This might be getting a little too intense.<\/em><\/p>\n

Perhaps I need to lighten it up a bit.\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0Ah! Basil!<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/span>No joke. That was my thought process.<\/p>\n

At any given time, there\u2019s a good chance I\u2019m hashing out some sort of internal food debate. It\u2019s just how I work.<\/p>\n

\"bacon\"\"bacon\"<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

And any time bacon is involved, well, you just win.<\/p>\n

\n

\"basil\"\"basil\"<\/p>\n

Basil and corn? Probably one of the best summer food combos in\u00a0existence.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\"items\"items<\/p>\n

Put it all together in a cornbread muffin and it almost feels like a meal in cup form!<\/p>\n

Sweet corn, salty bacon, peppery basil \u2013 it has it all.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

And muffins are just cute, so why not?<\/p>\n
