Can I omit the eggs? Yes, you can! Just skip them.

Can I use canned cream of corn? You can, but I would reduce the sugar since the corn and corn muffin mix both already have sugar in it.

Can I use something instead of sugar? You can either skip the sugar completely, or use 2 tablespoons honey instead.

Can I bake this in my cast iron pan instead? Yes, you can.

Can I make this spicy? Sure, add 1 jalapeño pepper, finely chopped up.
