Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened (for honey butter)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Grease a mini muffin tin or line it with mini muffin liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, mix the milk, melted butter, eggs, and honey until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. While the cornbread poppers are baking, prepare the honey butter by mixing the softened butter, honey, and cinnamon (if using) in a small bowl until smooth and well combined.
  8. Once the poppers are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Serve warm with honey butter on the side.
