Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray or butter, or line with mini muffin liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and honey until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Using a small scoop or spoon, divide the batter evenly among the mini muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden 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 2 minutes. Then gently transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite topping. Enjoy!
