Closet Cooking

Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Honey Jalapeno Cornbread Muffins

[heart_this] · Jul 23, 2018 · 10 Comments

Honey Jalapeno Cornbread Muffins

Honey and butter cornbread with spicy jalapeno peppers!

Freshly bake cornbread is one of lives simple pleasures, especially when slathered with melting butter and honey! Homemade cornbread is so easy to make and better than any store bought! You start with some simple ingredients like cornmeal, flour, buttermilk, butter and eggs to which I like to add honey for a touch of sweetness. These cornbread muffins have jalapeno peppers for a bit of spicy heat and I like to add cheddar cheese for additional flavour! It only takes about 30 minutes to make these muffins and they are perfect for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or snack! My only issue with these honey jalapeno cornbread muffins is trying to restrain myself from eating the entire batch when they are fresh from the oven!

    Made these today, and they turned out great! They were moist and only slightly sweet. I used my silicone muffin pan and after 15 minutes they were perfect.

    Can I replace the jalapeños with something not spicy? I want to bake for families with children. Thank you.

      Yes you can! When they are in season I like to use cranberries, but you can use pretty much anything!
