These delightful muffins combine the classic flavors of cornbread with a gluten-free twist, using a blend of gluten-free all-purpose flour and yellow cornmeal to create a tender crumb that’s sure to impress.

Whether served fresh from the oven or enjoyed as leftovers, these muffins are a gluten-free baking dream that will have guests reaching for seconds!
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and honey until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter can be slightly lumpy.
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
