Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 cup milk
- 2 units large eggs
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch round or square baking pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well blended.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and honey until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined—do not overmix to keep the cornbread tender.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
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.
Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your warm Cinnamon Cornbread with butter, honey, or your favorite spread!
