Add all the wet ingredients into another mixing bowl and mix well.
½ Cup Honey, 2-¼ Cups Buttermilk, 1 Tablespoons Louisiana Hot Sauce, 3 Each Large Eggs
Take the wet ingredients and add to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Once the oven has reached the right temperature pour the batter into the hot skillet.

Notes
I added the sugar option as I know that some people like their cornbread a little sweeter! I like it this way, without the sugar as sweetness can always be added afterward with a drizzle of honey!
