Ingredients

• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup whole milk
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons honey (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9-inch square baking dish or a similarly sized cast-iron skillet.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan, melt the butter. Let it cool slightly before mixing it with the wet ingredients.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, and honey (if using) until smooth.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are fine.

Step 6

Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish or skillet, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

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 8

Allow the cornbread to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm with butter or a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness.
