Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by greasing it or lining it with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, honey, and eggs until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the tops are lightly 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 tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely, or serve warm.
