Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Remove from heat, and whisk in the granulated sugar and honey until fully combined.
Allow the butter mixture to cool slightly before whisking in the eggs one at a time, followed by the buttermilk. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until the batter is smooth and all the dry ingredients are incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
Transfer the batter to 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.
Allow the corn bread to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before cutting into squares and serving warm.
