Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in the sour cream, milk, melted butter, and honey until the mixture is evenly blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly 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 pan from the oven and let the cornbread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool slightly before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy as a side with soups, stews, or chili, or simply with a pat of butter and drizzle of honey.
