Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 0.25 cup vegetable oil
- 2 pieces large eggs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease an 8x8-inch (or 9x9-inch) baking pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt to combine.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the whole milk, melted butter, vegetable oil, and eggs until fully combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 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 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite spread for added flavor.
