How To Make diabetic upside-down tomato cornbread muffins
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Trim ends off tomatoes and remove cores. Cut tomatoes crosswise into 12 total slices (about 3/4-inch thick each). Line a 15x10x1-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
-
Step 2Place tomato slices and chopped onion in the prepared pan and drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder and black pepper. Roast for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and increase oven temperature to 400 degrees F.
-
Step 3Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine corn muffin mix, cheese, chile peppers, milk, sour cream, and egg product. Stir just until combined. Set aside.
-
Step 4Coat twelve 2-1/2-inch muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray. Place a tomato slice and some of the onions in the bottom of each muffin cup. Spoon corn muffin mixture on top of tomato slices, filling muffin cups nearly full.
-
Step 5Bake for 15 minutes or until tops are golden brown and a wooden toothpick inserted into muffins comes out clean. Let muffins stand in cups on wire racks for 10 minutes. Run a thin table knife around edges of muffins to loosen from sides of pan. Invert muffins onto a serving plate. Serve warm. Makes 12 muffins
