Ingredients:
- 1 cup Southern Grits Company cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup honey
Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease or line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and honey.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve the sweet cornbread muffins warm or at room temperature. They are delicious on their own or served with butter, honey, or your favorite jam.
