Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 Large egg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish or a similar-sized cast iron skillet and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well blended.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, honey, and egg. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

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

Step 6

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 7

Remove the cornbread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 8

Serve warm with butter, a drizzle of honey, or your favorite topping. Enjoy!
