Heat a large dutch oven over medium, almost medium high heat.

In a bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt.

Whisk to evenly combine.

In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and eggs.

Add to the dry ingredients and stir until just coming together but a few flour streaks remain.

Make the honey butter.

Once the oil is hot, use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to drop the batter into the hot oil.

Transfer to a paper towel lined plate and then into a basket or bowl.

Drizzle with honey butter and serve immediately.
