Ingredients
- 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
Step 7
Allow the cornbread cake to cool in the baking dish for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature with butter, honey, or jam if desired.
