Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups thoroughly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and kosher salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the whole milk, eggs, melted unsalted butter, and honey until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together using a spatula or spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
Enjoy these muffins as a side dish with your favorite main course or topped with additional honey or butter!
