Fluffy and moist, this cornbread is almost cake like with lots of honey and a full cup of blueberries.
The best part is this tasty treat comes together so quickly, and you only need a whisk, bowl, and a baking dish! Cornbread is a favorite in my home. Sometimes I use a muffin tin and make them easy for on the go.
The boys get so excited every time I make it, and it never lasts long. I usually stick to savory flavors like cheddar, habanero honey, jalapeno and cornbread waffles. Here are some of those recipes if you would like to try them.
I was craving something sweet and had blueberries to use up. So here we are now. In addition to blueberries, I sprinkled a light layer of powdered sugar on top and mixed in 3 tablespoons of honey. It created the perfect balance of sweet but not overwhelming. Think of it as a tea cake. It is great for breakfast or as a snack.
How pretty is that? It is done in under 40 minutes from start to finish and I don’t know about you but I love that.
Blueberries
I highly recommend using fresh, however if you use frozen, let them thaw first. Pour the excess water from thawing out before adding to the cornbread mix.
