Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cornmeal
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 cup Milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Plain Greek yogurt (optional, for extra moisture)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and sugar until well-combined.
In a separate bowl, mix together the milk, melted unsalted butter, egg, and Greek yogurt (if using) until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently just until the batter comes together. Avoid overmixing; lumps are okay.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the top is golden 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 warm with a spread of unsalted butter or a drizzle of honey for added sweetness!
