Categories: Pizza/Flatbread

Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
  • 2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • 1 cup buttermilk, at room temp
  • 3 large eggs, at room temp
  • 1 cup chopped spicy pickled peppers, drained well, at room temp (Pepperoncini works awesome)
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 and grease a 10-inch round pan or 18 standard muffin cups with cooking spray.

  2. Get two big mixing bowls. In one, mix the flour, cornmeal, salt, sugar, baking soda and baking powder. In the other, whisk the honey, buttermilk, eggs and peppers.

  3. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and stir in the liquid mixture. When the liquid is incorporated, mix in the butter.

  4. Pour into the pan or divide among the muffin cups, filling them to within 1/2 inch of the top. For a 10-inch pan, bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. For muffins, bake for 20-25 minutes.
