Ingredients
- 1 cup blue cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with muffin liners or lightly grease each cup with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the blue cornmeal, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, egg, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Gently fold them together using a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 5
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 to 3/4 full.
Step 6
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Serve warm with butter or honey, or enjoy at room temperature as a delicious snack or side!
