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
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or skillet.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, honey, and eggs until smooth.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should remain slightly lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–22 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 or honey for extra richness.
