Ingredients
Muffins:
Nonstick cooking spray, for the muffin tin
1 1/3 cups yellow cornmeal
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup buttermilk
2 large eggs, whisked
1 1/2 cups grated sharp Cheddar
One 4-ounce cans green chiles
6 tablespoons salted butter, melted
Honey Butter:

3 tablespoons honey
Directions
- For the muffins: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Prepare a muffin tin with cooking spray.
- Stir together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
- Add the buttermilk and eggs to a small pitcher and stir to combine. Pour the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir with a fork until combined. Fold in the cheese, green chiles and melted butter until just combined.
