These Mini Cornbread Muffins are subtly sweet, ultra fluffy, and even better than Jiffy! All you have to do is combine flour and cornmeal with honey, butter, milk, and eggs and then bake into moist, mini muffins for an easy and delicious side.
Add cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to a large bowl. Whisk until well combined. In a separate medium bowl whisk together the eggs, melted and cooled butter, milk, and honey.
1 ¼ cup cornmeal, ¾ cup all purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, 2 large eggs, 6 tablespoons butter, 1 cup whole milk, ⅓ cup honey
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir by hand until just combined. Be careful not to over mix it.
Spray a 24-cup mini muffin tray with non-stick cooking spray and fill each one to almost full. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, or until the tops puff up and the edges are golden. Enjoy!

Notes
Cornmeal: A medium grind will give you the best fluffy texture and chewy bite. Fine ground or coarse ground can work, but won't cook exactly the same.
Flour: All purpose flour works the best, but a gluten-free 1-to-1 blend can be substituted if needed.
Milk: Whole milk or 2% were used when testing, but a full-fat plant-based alternative may be subbed.
Storage: Muffins will keep at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
