Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and lightly grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, and honey until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite jam. Enjoy!
