Honey Butter Skillet Corn Tips

One of the great things about this recipe is that it’s very versatile. Here are a few tips to help you make the most of it:

  • If you’re short on time, you can use frozen corn instead of fresh. Just be sure to thaw it first before adding it to the skillet.
  • For an extra bit of flavor, try adding a few drops of hot sauce to the honey-butter mixture.
  • Leftover Honey Butter Skillet Corn is delicious cold, so don’t hesitate to enjoy it as a tasty snack later on.

Honey Butter Skillet Corn Variations

If you’re looking to change things up, there are a few easy ways to do so. Here are a few of my favorite variations:

  • For a bit of extra sweetness, try adding a tablespoon or two of sugar to the honey-butter mixture.
  • If you’re in the mood for something spicy, try adding some chopped jalapeño peppers to the mix.
  • For a cheesy twist, top your Honey Butter Skillet Corn with some shredded cheddar cheese before serving.
