Ingredients

2 Tbsp butter softened
2 cups plain yellow cornmeal
1 cup all purpose flour
3 Tbsp granulated sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
2 large eggs
butter and honey for serving

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter the cups of a standard 12 cup muffin pan with 2 Tbsp softened butter. Set aside.
In a medium size bowl use a whisk or a fine mesh strainer to sift together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, butter and eggs. Add to the sifted dry ingredients mixing until fully combined.
Divide batter evenly between muffin cups using a standard ice cream scoop or a 1/4 cup measuring cup.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes back clean. Remove from the pan to a wire rack.
Serve warm with butter and honey.

Notes

Make Your Own Buttermilk: To every one cup of whole milk add one tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes then stir and proceed with the recipe.
