Sweet Cornbread Muffins
I love cornbread. But sometimes it can be too dry. These are so good they are delicious on their own, but with a dollop of honey – even better.
ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 egg
1 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prep a cupcake tin with liners.
In a bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt and baking powder. Stir in egg, milk and vegetable oil until well combined. Pour into cups, filling almost to the top.

From Dinosaur BBQ in my hometown of Syracuse, NY. I ususally use more honey than the recipe calls for and have never tried it as muffins but I bet they would be great.
