Cornmeal Muffins {Recipe}

There is nothing better than local fresh raw honey, that has been drizzled over a cornmeal muffin,  hot out of the oven!  Yum! 


 I've been craving them ever since I found some incredible tasting honey at my local Farmers Market .


Instead of making the traditional corn muffin as usual, I was surprised last week to find a fun new recipe from an online friend.  So I decided to try it for a change. 


 They turned out to be a nice light and fluffy treat that was not too sweet.  A bit different than a traditional cormeal muffin but still great for a change!  So after making her muffin recipe we made mini muffins as well!


I'm sharing the recipe from over at Shoregirl's Creations so check her recipe out here.

Shoregirl's Cornmeal Muffins

2 cups flour
2/3 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup cold butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups milk

Combine dry ingredients.  Cut in butter until crumbly, add sour cream and milk, mix well.  Spoon into greased muffin pan.  Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. {makes 12}

Summer... Sun... Baking... Fun... I hope you're enjoying your Summer as much as I am!  What is your favorite thing to top with honey?  I really want to know!

  5. Hello Wendy,

    I'm so much behind with reading all of of your blogs. They are such a feast for the eyes to see and read. Your pictures are great and tasteful. I just wish I could grab one off the screen. I do have to take care not to read them on an empty stomach as you make such delicious things, yummie.
    But I keep saying, where do you find the time to do all this. I simply don't have it, after work, household and stuff. So, fill me in on the secret.

    If we get to meet, I will have to try at least one of your great things.
