Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Gluten-free cornflakes
- 90 grams Unsalted butter
- 4 tablespoons Honey
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper cupcake liners.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter, honey, and sugar together over low heat. Stir continuously until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
Increase the heat slightly and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow it to simmer for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat.
Place the gluten-free cornflakes in a large mixing bowl. Pour the honey-butter mixture over the cornflakes, and gently stir with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula until all the flakes are evenly coated.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared cupcake liners, dividing it evenly among the 12 cups and pressing down gently to compact each one slightly.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the honey joys turn golden and smell fragrant.
Remove from the oven and allow the honey joys to cool completely in the tin. They will firm up as they cool.
Once cooled, transfer them to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately. Enjoy!
