Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter or cooking spray or use paper liners.
  • In a bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
  • In another bowl, whisk together eggs, honey, milk and butter.
  • Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly into the muffin tin, filling each about two-thirds full.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean from the center of a muffin.
  • Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • To avoid dense cornbread muffins, do not overmix the batter.
  • Room temperature ingredients will combine better.
  • Fluff and scoop the flour into your measuring cup, then level the top.
  • Use a cookie scoop to evenly portion the batter into the muffin tin.
  • To Store: Allow leftovers to cool and transfer to an airtight container or Ziploc bag. Store at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
  • To Freeze: Store in a freezer-safe container or individually wrapped in plastic wrap for up to 3 months.   
  • To Reheat: Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then reheat in the microwave or the oven at 350°F until they’re warmed through.
