Sour Cream Corn Cranberry muffins and a Click

I had some corn meal in hand and was searching for recipes to make muffins..I landed upon few recipes which used sour cream..They tasted too good with the addition of sour cream..I used the fatfree, light version of sour cream..I also added some dried cranberries for making them more sweet..Here goes the recipe and this is Day 3 of Recipe Marathon

                          

Ingredients

Cornmeal/cornflour - 11/2 cup
All purpose flour/maida - 1/2 cup
Milk - 1/4 cup
Softened butter - 1/2 cup
Light sour cream - 3/4 cup
Eggs - 2
Baking powder - 1 teaspoon
Baking soda - 1/2 teaspoon
Salt - 1 pinch
Sugar - 1/2 cup
Frozen corn kernals - 1/2 cup
Dried cranberries - 1/4 cup

Directions

Preheat oven to 4oo degree F.
Grease and flour muffin cups or spray with baking spray.
Whisk eggs with sour cream, milk, and melted butter.
In a mixing bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, soda, and sugar.
Stir the first mixture into the dry ingredients just until blended; fold in corn kernels and dried cranberries..

                            

Spoon the batter into prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 to 3/4 full.
Bake the muffins for 20 to 25 minutes, or until tops are lightly browned.
