This recipe is a quick and easy comfort food that’s great for any holiday gathering.

Ingredients

  • 1 box Corn Muffin Mix (8.5 oz)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • Optional additions:
    – 1–2 tablespoons extra honey for added sweetness
    – 1/4 cup sour cream for extra moisture
    – Pinch of cinnamon for warmth

Instructions

1. Preheat and prep
Heat your oven to 400°F and grease an 8×8 baking dish, or line it with parchment paper.
