Bite-sized cornbread poppers with a sweet and savory honey butter glaze, perfect for parties and holidays.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a mini muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, 1/4 cup melted butter, and egg.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. While the cornbread poppers are baking, whisk together the 2 tablespoons melted butter and 1 tablespoon honey in a small bowl to make the glaze.
  8. Once the cornbread poppers are out of the oven, let them cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
  9. Brush the warm cornbread poppers with the honey butter glaze.
  10. Serve warm.

Notes

  • These poppers can be made ahead and reheated.
  • For a savory twist, reduce the honey in the batter to 2 tablespoons and omit the glaze.
  • These are great for meal planning and can be a kid-friendly bite.
