Description

Delightful mini cornbread poppers infused with honey and butter, perfect for any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • Butter for greasing the mini muffin pan
  • Honey for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and generously grease a mini muffin pan with butter.
  2. Mix the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Combine the milk, eggs, melted butter, and honey in a separate bowl until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined.
  5. Spoon the batter into the mini muffin pan, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  8. Drizzle with additional honey if desired.

Notes

For a more rustic texture, swap regular cornmeal for stone-ground cornmeal. Use high-quality local honey for better flavor.
