Ingredients

  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
  • 0.33 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup Whole milk
  • 1 unit Large egg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or skillet with butter or nonstick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, whole milk, and egg until fully incorporated.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring with a spatula or whisk until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

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 allow it to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 8

Serve warm with an extra dollop of butter or drizzle of honey, if desired.
