Ingredients

• 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Honey

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9-inch square baking pan or a similarly sized cast-iron skillet with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

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

Step 3

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

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix just until combined, being careful not to overmix as this can make the cornbread dense.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite spread. Enjoy!
