Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease an 8-inch square baking pan or a similarly sized oven-safe dish with oil or butter and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free cornmeal, gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar.
In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, milk, eggs, and honey (if using) until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can affect the texture.
Transfer the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
