Whoever’s still making sheet tray cornbread clearly doesn’t value personal space—or crispy muffin edges. These are loaded with cheddar and jalapeños (because “just a little” isn’t in my vocabulary), made rich with butter and buttermilk, and baked in muffin tins so everyone gets their own golden, fluffy bite. I split one open, added a chunk of butter and a drizzle of hot honey… and yeah, that’s the story. Pure summer joy!

Lets Start Cooking!

step 1

Start by charring the jalapeños and scallions over direct flame. Once nicely blistered, remove from the heat, chop, and set aside.

step 2

Preheat your oven to 400°F or 200°C.

step 3

In a bowl, whisk together the melted butter, olive oil, honey, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the egg and buttermilk, and mix until fully combined.

step 4

In a separate bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.

step 5

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold until just combined.

step 6

Fold in the chopped jalapeños, scallions, and cheddar.

step 7

Scoop the batter into a lined muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 of the way.

step 8

Bake for 20–22 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

step 9

Serve hot- split them open, add butter, drizzle with hot honey, and go to town.

step 10
