In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of yellow cornmeal, 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 0.5 cups of granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
Whisk the dry ingredients together until they are well blended and evenly distributed.
Transfer the mix to an airtight container or a resealable plastic bag if you are not using it immediately. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 2 months.
When ready to use, measure out 2 1/3 cups of the premade cornbread mix.
To make cornbread: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or a 12-cup muffin tin.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, 2 large eggs, and 1/4 cup of melted butter. Stir the wet ingredients into the measured cornbread mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan or muffin tin, spreading it evenly.
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.
Cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your homemade cornbread!
