📝 Instructions

7 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cornmeal, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until evenly combined.

3

In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, whole milk, melted butter, eggs, and honey until smooth and well combined.

4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

5

Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

6

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

7

Allow the cornbread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve warm with butter, honey, or any of your favorite toppings.
