Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 eggs room temperature
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk or milk of choice

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375° F. Spray a 12-count muffin pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl whisk together the dry ingredients. In a separate mixing bowl whisk together the wet ingredients.
  • Pour the wet ingredients in with the dry and stir together with a rubber spatula until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin pan. Place the pan on the middle rack in the oven and bake for 14-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean or with a few crumbs attached.
  • Cool the muffins for several minutes in the pan before removing them onto a wire cooling rack. Serve warm with salted butter and honey.

Notes

  • The cornbread muffins will keep in an airtight container for 1-2 days at room temperature and up to 4 days in the refrigerator. They can also be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months.
