Ingredients
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 4 scallions, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon neutral cooking oil or butter (for greasing)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Grease an 8-inch square baking dish or skillet with butter or oil and set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, and eggs until smooth.
Step 5
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients.

Gently mix until just combined; do not overmix. The batter may be slightly lumpy, which is fine.

Fold in the finely chopped scallions until evenly distributed.
Step 8
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or skillet, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into squares or wedges.
Step 11
Serve warm and enjoy!
