Steps:

• For the muffins: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
• Add the bacon to a medium skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crispy, about 5 minutes. Pour the bacon and fat into a bowl and let cool slightly.
• Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the buttermilk, oil and egg to the bowl with the bacon and whisk together. Stir the milk mixture into the dry mixture and pour the combined batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling just to the top of the cups. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 10 to 15 minutes.
• For the orange butter: While the muffins are cooking, combine the butter, agave and zest in a medium bowl with a pinch of salt and stir until completely combined.
• Serve the muffins with fresh orange butter.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
• In a large nonstick skillet, cook the bacon, over medium heat until crisp and brown. Transfer the bacon to paper towels; drain and cool.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, hot sauce and eggs. Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and pepper in a food processor. Drop in the cold butter cubes. Using on/off turns, blend until the butter is cut in finely and the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Pour the dry ingredients over the buttermilk mixture. Scatter the bacon and green onions over the batter. Using a thin, flexible spatula, fold the batter together, scraping up the liquids from the bottom each time and turning the bowl as you fold. Do not over-fold; some dry patches are fine. Using a rounded 1/3 cup of batter for each muffin, fill the paper liners.
• Bake until puffed and browning at edges, and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Let the muffins stand 5 to 10 minutes. Twist each muffin in place to loosen the edges from the pan. Lift the muffins out onto a rack and cool.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 8- or 9-inch square pan with cooking spray.
• In medium bowl, stir together cornbread mix, melted butter, egg and milk just until moistened (batter will be lumpy). Stir in chiles and half of the bacon and cheese. Pour into pan. Sprinkle remaining bacon and cheese over batter.
• Bake 16 to 18 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cut into squares; serve warm.

Steps:

• Fry the bacon and then chop/dice.
• Sift the flour, cornmeal, salt and baking powder into a bowl.
• Add lots of freshly ground black pepper.
• Add chopped spring onions, corn, parsley, eggs, milk, oil and honey to the dry ingredients and FOLD in (Stir until just mixed- do NOT beat!).
• Place tablespoons of mixture into well greased patty tins.
• Sprinkle the top of 8- with poppy seeds, 8-with toasted sesame seeds and 8- with mustard seeds.
• Sprinkle a little paprika over them all.
• Bake in very hot oven (220-230'C) for 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 48 mini muffin tin cups with nonstick cooking spray.
• Mix cornmeal, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Stir in jalapenos, onion, and garlic. Add melted butter and mix well.
• Stir corn, buttermilk, eggs, and bacon into the cornmeal mixture until incorporated. Add shredded Monterey Jack cheese and mix batter well.
• Use a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop to fill muffin cups about 3/4 full with batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until puffed and golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from muffin tins and cool on a rack.
