Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Yellow cornmeal
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 Eggs, large
- 0.75 cups Buttermilk
- 0.5 cups Frozen corn kernels, thawed
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well with butter or non-stick spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, eggs, and buttermilk until smooth and fully blended.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to gently mix the batter until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Step 5
Fold the thawed corn kernels gently into the batter, distributing them evenly throughout.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve warm with butter or your favorite spread. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
