Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Cornmeal
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Milk (whole milk or buttermilk)
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon Honey (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well-combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and honey (if using).
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy and thick.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it evenly to the edges.
Step 6
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.
Step 7
Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the baking dish for 5-10 minutes. Slice into squares and serve warm, or let it cool completely and store in an airtight container.
