Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a standard muffin pan with paper liners.

Melt the butter in a large heatproof bowl in the microwave for 1 minute or until melted. Let stand for a couple of minutes to cool slightly, then whisk in the buttermilk, honey and egg until well combined.

Add the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt, and stir until just combined. Do not over mix.

Divide the batter evenly between the (12) muffin cups, then bake for 13-15 minutes or until set. Remove the cornbread muffins from heat and cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes in the pan, then remove from the pan and cool completely. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Room Temperature Ingredients 🌡️
Bring eggs, milk, and butter to room temperature before mixing to ensure even incorporation and a lighter, fluffier muffin texture that rises beautifully in the oven.
Don't Overmix the Batter 🥄
Stir the one-bowl batter just until the dry ingredients are moistened; overmixing develops gluten and creates tough, dense muffins instead of the desired tender crumb.
Toast Your Cornmeal 🌽
Lightly toast the cornmeal in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes before adding to the batter to deepen its nutty flavor and enhance the overall taste profile of your muffins.
Preheat and Grease Strategically 🧈
Preheat your muffin tin in the oven for 5 minutes before filling to ensure even baking and golden-brown bottoms, and use melted butter for greasing for better flavor and browning.
The Toothpick Test Timing ✓
Check muffins at 18-20 minutes with a toothpick inserted in the center—it should have a few moist crumbs clinging to it, not be completely clean, to maintain that signature moist, tender texture.
