Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line 10 cups of a 12-cup muffin pan with foil baking cups, or spray them with nonstick spray.

In a large bowl, mix flour, cornmeal, Splenda, baking powder, and salt.

In a medium bowl, thoroughly mix cream-style corn, egg substitute, and yogurt. Fold in chopped jalapeño slices and 1/2 cup cheese.

Transfer contents of the medium bowl to the large bowl, and stir well.

Evenly distribute batter among the 10 lined or sprayed cups. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese.

Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Eat up!
