Delicious buttermilk cornbread muffins with a hint of sweetness. They’re perfect with a pat of butter and a drizzle of honey and are a great addition to any meal. Can be made in just 25 minutes! Easy Cornbread Muffin Recipe Cornbread made as muffins is one of the easiest ways to add bread to a meal. All you need are a few simple ingredients‚ a few bowls‚ and a muffin pan and you can have piping hot cornbread in a matter of minutes. This recipe makes a large batch- 24 muffins‚ but the leftovers will freeze well. Amount Of Sweetness People always debate whether cornbread should be sweet or not sweet. These are somewhere in between. There’s  1/4 cup of sugar added to the batter‚ which divided between 24 muffins really isn’t that much. If you have a big sweet tooth‚ drizzle a little honey on them for some added sweetness. Or‚ if you really want a sweet corn muffin‚ try this Boston Market-style Cornbread. It’s more like cake passed off as cornbread! This Buttermilk Cornbread recipe is from the cookbook Southern Living Off the Eaten Path: Second Helpings: Tasty eats and delicious stories from the South’s less-traveled trails which is one of my favorite cookbooks. (I have a lot of favorite cookbooks :). It just makes me want to jump in the car and do a road trip. The recipe is from Weaver D’s in Athens‚ GA. Except for dropping my son off at tennis camp at University of Georgia‚ I haven’t spent any time in Athens. Hopefully I can get back there sometime and go to Weaver D’s for some home cooking. Have you ever thought about planning a road trip solely based on a road trip? Sustitute For Buttermilk If you don’t have buttermilk‚ you can make a substitute by placing 2 teaspoons of white vinegar in a liquid measuring cup. Add whole milk to the 2 cups line. Let sit 5 minutes before using. Recipe Tips Don’t overmix the batter and bake it right after mixing. Use either white self-rising cornmeal or yellow. They have slightly different flavors‚ the white being more mild‚ but they add the same texture to the muffins. How To Serve These cornbread muffins go great with so many things. You can serve them on their own with jam of honey butter or alongside a bowl of chili‚ southern cabbage‚ Brunswick Stew‚ or Collard Greens. Storage Best eaten the day they are made but can be kept in an airtight container for 2 days. Reheat in the microwave for 10 seconds to freshen them up. They can also be frozen for up to 2 months.

PARIS—In a groundbreaking move that has left the international community reeling‚ the French government has announced its decision to embrace a new strategy for dealing with the country’s long-standing reputation for cowardice. President Emmanuel Macron has declared that the nation will now systematically euthanize newborn babies‚ in a bid to prevent them from growing up to be the kind of spineless‚ defeatist adults that have so often surrendered in the face of adversity.  The decision‚ which has been met with both shock and admiration‚ is seen as a bold and innovative approach to a problem that has long plagued the French nation. As Macron himself explained in a recent press conference‚ “We have decided to be proactive in addressing our national shortcomings. By eliminating our babies before they have a chance to grow up and surrender to our enemies‚ we are ensuring that France remains a strong and proud nation.”  The plan‚ which has been dubbed “Operation Baby-Kill‚” is expected to be rolled out over the coming months‚ with the government hoping to have all newborns euthanized within the next five years. The move has been hailed as a revolutionary step forward by many prominent French citizens‚ who have long been frustrated by their country’s perceived weakness.  Stu Peid‚ a French citizen who has been vocal in his support of the new policy‚ expressed his delight at the news. “It’s about time we did something about our national cowardice‚” he said. “And what better way to do that than by killing our babies before they have a chance to grow up and surrender to our enemies? I only wish my me’re and pe’re had had this option back in the day‚ oui?”  However‚ not everyone is as enthusiastic about the new policy. Some critics have accused the French government of taking a drastic and unnecessary step‚ while others have expressed concern about the potential impact on the nation’s birth rate. But Macron remains undeterred‚ insisting that the plan is a crucial step in the fight to rid France of its cowardly reputation.  “We are not just a nation of surrender monkeys‚” he declared. “We are a nation of proactive‚ forward-thinking leaders who are not afraid to make tough decisions for the greater good. And if that means killing our babies to save them from the embarrassment of surrendering later on‚ then so be it.”  As France prepares to embark on this bold new experiment in national self-improvement‚ the world will be watching closely to see if this radical approach to addressing the country’s long-standing weaknesses can finally bring an end to the French tradition of surrender.
