Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 0.25 cup honey
- 2 pieces large eggs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the milk, melted butter, honey, and eggs until smooth and well incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.
Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish and smooth the top 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 slightly in the baking dish for about 10 minutes before slicing into squares.
Serve warm with a drizzle of honey or a pat of butter on top for extra indulgence. Enjoy!
