Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 0.25 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, honey, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined—do not overmix to ensure a light and tender texture.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the pan from the oven and let the corn bread cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Step 8
Slice into squares or rectangles and serve warm. It pairs wonderfully with butter, jam, or a drizzle of honey.
