Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup butter
- 2 whole eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup sour cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch round or square baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Melt the butter in a microwave or on the stovetop and let it cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs thoroughly, then stir in the milk, sour cream, and melted butter until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing—the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cornbread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm with butter, honey, or as a side to your favorite dish.
