The recipe in 15 seconds

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

  2. Stir the muffin mix, eggs, milk and sour cream together until just combined. A few lumps are fine.

  3. Divide the batter between the cups, filling each about two-thirds full.

  4. Bake until golden on top and a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Beat the butter and honey together while they bake.

  5. Brush or spread the honey butter over the hot muffins, sprinkle with a little flaky salt and serve warm.

Tips

  • The sour cream keeps boxed cornbread moist; plain yogurt works the same way.
  • Don't overmix the batter or the muffins turn dense and peaked.
  • Stir in 1/2 cup shredded cheddar and a diced jalapeño for a savory version.
