To make these tasty bites, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup of cornmeal
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper

- 1 cup of caramelized onions
- 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
This recipe makes about 24 bites, so adjust the ingredients accordingly if you need more or less.
To start, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, sour cream, eggs, and melted butter. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the caramelized onions and shredded cheddar cheese.
Spoon the batter into a greased mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bites are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
These Caramelized Onion Corn Bites are the perfect combination of sweet and savory, with a crispy exterior and a soft, fluffy interior. The caramelized onions add a rich, deep flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweet cornmeal and tangy cheddar cheese.
In just two words, this dish can be described as "Savory Bites". The three main ingredients are cornmeal, caramelized onions, and cheddar cheese.
Cooking Tips:
- To save time, you can caramelize the onions ahead of time and store them in the fridge until you're ready to use them.
- If you don't have a mini muffin tin, you can use a regular muffin tin or even a baking dish. Just adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- These bites are best served warm, so if you're making them ahead of time, reheat them in the oven for a few minutes before serving.
