Southern-Style Honey Butter Cornbread Poppers

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
Add Corn and Cheese:
Fold in the sweet corn kernels and shredded cheddar cheese (if using).
Fill the Pan:
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cavity about 2/3 full to allow for rising.
Bake:
Place the tin in the preheated oven and bake for 10–12 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Prepare Honey Butter:
While the poppers are baking, mix together the softened butter, honey, and ground cinnamon (if using) in a small bowl until smooth and creamy.
Serve:
Once baked, let the poppers cool slightly in the pan for about 2–3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Serve warm with a generous spread of honey butter on top.
Tips
For extra sweetness, drizzle some honey over the poppers just before serving.
These poppers can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving.
