Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Grease an 8x8-inch square baking pan or a 9-inch round pan with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and honey until fully incorporated.
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; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the cornbread cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite toppings. Enjoy as a comforting side or a standalone treat!
