Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons honey

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

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

Step 3

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

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if a few lumps remain.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Enjoy your Pumpkin Cornbread warm with butter, honey, or your favorite fall-inspired spread!
