Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and honey until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with the spatula.
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.
Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy Margo's Sweet Cornbread warm with butter, honey, or your favorite topping!
