Ingredients

• 1 cup Cornmeal
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 Large egg
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Vegetable oil (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a cast-iron skillet or 8x8-inch baking pan in the oven while it preheats.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, egg, and honey until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if a few lumps remain.

Step 5

Carefully remove the preheated skillet or baking pan from the oven. Add the teaspoon of vegetable oil, swirling to coat the bottom evenly to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the hot pan, spreading it out evenly. The hot pan will help create a crispy edge on the cornbread.

Step 7

Bake for 20 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy it warm with an extra drizzle of honey or a pat of butter!
