Methodology
In a medium bowl, combine the milk, olive oil and egg. Add the cornmeal, stir and let rest for 10 minutes to soften cornmeal. Separately combine dry ingredients. Add dry ingredients to cornmeal mixture and stir just to combine.
Fill 12 oiled or papercup-lined muffin cups, or turn into 8" square oiled cake pan and bake at 400F in middle rack for 15-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted into centre comes out dry. If using cheese, remove muffin or cake pan 5 minutes before done, gently sprinkle cheese over top and return to oven for final five minutes.
