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 and cooled
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan and set it aside.
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 milk, melted butter, eggs, and honey until well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula or whisk until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should look slightly lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the Johnny Cake from the oven and let it cool slightly in the pan for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite spread for a delicious treat.
