Servings: 12
Prep Time: 15 m
Cook Time: 20 m

Ingredients

  • 2 7.5 oz packages corn bread mix (such as Jiffy)
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsp white sugar
  • 3 tbsp melted butter

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners.
     
  2. Mix corn bread mix, milk, sour cream, honey, and eggs in a bowl until batter is well combined yet slightly lumpy; allow to rest for 5 minutes. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full with batter. Lightly sprinkle each muffin with sugar.
     
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until muffins are golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Brush tops of muffins with melted butter; repeat brushing muffins with butter 2 to 3 more times.

NOTES: I didn't brush the tops, instead, I combine the butter into the muffins and sprinkle the top with granulated sugar to add a bit of crunch.
