no butter, no gluten and refined-sugar free healthy cornbread muffins! the perfect recipe to make for breakfast, an easy (& delicious) snack or a part of your dinner spread
in my opinion, cornbread is an underrated fall food. it flies under the radar but whenever it's made people LOVE it! sometimes cornbread can get a bad rep for being dry or not having enough flavor. this recipe is here to prove both of those statements wrong! by using greek yogurt and honey, this recipe is able to retain moistness. in addition, the honey adds a unique flavor and sweetness to the muffin.
