Tender gluten free cornbread muffins loaded with wholesome ingredients for a dairy free side. Corn kernels and honey add texture and flavor to these cakes.
In a large bowl whisk together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, coconut oil and honey.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk together until just mixed. Gently stir in the corn.
Lightly spray the muffin tins with nonstick cooking spray. Skip this step if using paper liners. Fill the muffin tins ⅔ full with the batter, about ⅓ cup per tin.
Place the muffin tin on a sheet pan and bake in the center rack of the oven.
Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, until golden and toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the pan, and then transfer to a cooling rack.
Do not leave the muffins in the tin longer than 5 minutes otherwise, they'll become soggy as they cool.
Notes
Butter can be substituted for coconut oil.
Granulated sugar can be substituted for coconut sugar.
