Using Fresh Corn: If using fresh corn, make sure to remove the kernels from the cob and blend as directed. Fresh corn provides a brighter, sweeter flavor.
Texture Variation: For a chunkier texture, blend the corn mixture less to retain some whole corn pieces in the batter.
Sweetness Level: Adjust the sugar quantity to suit your taste. Brazilian corn muffins are often on the sweeter side.
Storage: Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. They can also be frozen for longer storage.
