This may be one of the easiest recipes in Baked Explorations. And one of the best.
I like for cornbread to be sweet and moist. The kind that I can eat out of hand as well as dip into a bowl of beans. These muffins are those kind of cornbread.
Cornbread is a simple dish. Coconut, jalapenos, broccoli, etc. are worthy additions, but I prefer it prepared with basic, homey ingredients like buttermilk and honey. I don't think there is a recipe that Matt and Renata don't include brown sugar in and it's here too. But that was the only surprise on the ingredient list.
It was lovely to make something out of this book that I could easily make on a weeknight and serve with dinner. These muffins were the perfect accompaniment to a bowl of chili and were enjoyed by the three of us (and the guy at our house working on our cable TV). Moist and slightly sweet from the honey, they were even better with a smear of butter and a drizzle of honey. I have found my go-to recipe for cornbread.

One of the best recipes?! Really? Man, I feel bad that I dismissed it and made something else instead! Might have to come back to it one of these days...
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this recipe as well, Candy. Your muffins look great and even though we had them for breakfast which was so good with coffee, I know they would taste even better with a bowl of chili.
ReplyDeleteThese were great, weren't they? Definitely not the most glamorous Baked recipe, but totally one of the easiest and tastiest!
ReplyDeleteI definitely enjoyed how simple and easy these were. It was a great change from the Caramel Apple Cake I avoided last time because of all the directions. I will definitely make these often. I love that first picture of all your muffins stacked up!
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty muffins you made. Love your photo. Nice you included the cable guy...I'm sure you made his day.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree - so easy, and good too. Thought these were good for dessert aside from a bowl of chili. And how lucky for the cable guy too - what a treat!
ReplyDeleteI too was thankful that this was a simple and quick recipe! Your muffins look great!
ReplyDeleteI also appreciated the ease of making these. I also, at times, add all kinds of goodies to corn muffins but these stood well by themselves.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if they were one of my favorite recipes from the book, but they were still tasty. I too loved that they could be whipped up in no time for a weeknight dinner. I am glad you loved them so much. They look delicious!
ReplyDeleteExcelentes muffins,lucen perfectos,hugs,hugs.
