Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl large
  • Mixing Bowl medium
  • Whisk
  • Rubber Spatula
  • Muffin pan 12-well
  • Oven
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • Wire rack
  • Toothpick for doneness test
  • Cooking spray or parchment muffin cups

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk

Instructions
 

  • Set your oven to 375°F. Prepare a muffin pan by greasing it with cooking spray or lining it with parchment muffin cups.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir to blend everything evenly.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey, melted butter, Greek yogurt, and buttermilk. Mix until smooth and fully combined.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Use a rubber spatula to fold the batter together gently. Stir until just combined, it's okay if it's a little lumpy.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin wells, filling each about ¾ full.
  • Place the pan in the center of the oven. Bake for 14 to 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  • Let the muffins sit in the pan for a few minutes before moving them to a wire rack. Serve warm with butter and a drizzle of honey.
