Jalapeno Corn Muffins With Honey Butter

Submitted by MarraMamba

"These are yummy, no cheese in this one but the honey or maple butter fits perfectly here, even with the jalapeño. Recipe makes 8 muffins so for small families it wont be to much. Just double the amounts for more. From TOH"

These were okay but nothing special. I don't understand why they are rated so high. I followed the recipe exactly and measured everything.

Can't beat this recipe. It is wonderful! We loved the honey butter with them. Thanks for posting.

Fantastic cornbread! We loved everything about this recipe -- especially the honey-butter. I did not make muffins; instead, just made this in a round cast-iron skillet in the oven. I also used chopped pickled jalapenos vs. fresh. We will definitely have this cornbread again! I am amazed that we actually have some leftovers. Made for the Everyday is a Holiday tag, February, 2012.

These were delicious with the bite from the jalapenos and the coolness of the honey butter. I used plain greek yogurt in place of the sour cream and skim milk. I got 6 muffins. Very yummy!
