Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or cast-iron skillet generously with butter or non-stick spray.
Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan. Allow it to cool slightly before use.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, honey, and melted butter until smooth and well combined.
Add the eggs to the mixture one at a time, whisking thoroughly after each addition.
Stir in the sour cream and milk, mixing until the wet ingredients are smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined—do not overmix. The batter will be thick.
Pour the batter into the greased baking dish or skillet and smooth out 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 in the pan for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite topping. Enjoy!
