These delightful Honey-Glazed Cornbread Bites are a sweet twist on the classic cornbread muffin, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
Whisk the dry ingredients thoroughly to avoid clumps.
Add the honey, milk, egg, and melted butter to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Do not overmix to keep the muffins tender.
Grease the mini muffin tin and fill each cup about 3/4 full with the batter.
Use a small scoop for even portions.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Rotate the tin halfway through baking for even cooking.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Cooling in the tin helps them set and prevents sticking.
Serve the muffins warm, optionally drizzled with additional honey.
Warm muffins enhance the flavor of the honey drizzle.
