Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or a 9-inch cast-iron skillet with butter or cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and honey until smooth and fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula. Mix just until the batter comes together; avoid overmixing to ensure a tender cornbread.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or skillet, spreading it out evenly with the spatula.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your Emaw's Cornbread warm with butter, honey, or your favorite toppings!
