Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 1 cup milk
• 2 units large eggs
• 2 tablespoons honey

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch round or square baking pan.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well blended.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and honey until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined—do not overmix to keep the cornbread tender.

Step 5

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 8

Enjoy your warm Cinnamon Cornbread with butter, honey, or your favorite spread!
