- ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 large large eggs , room temperature
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Bake for about 5 to 10 minutes until heated through. Alternatively, you can use the microwave by wrapping a slice of cornbread in a damp paper towel and heating it in 30-second intervals until warmed to your liking. Be cautious not to overheat it, as it can become dry.
