Ingredients

• 1 cup Gluten-free cornmeal
• 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 2 whole Large eggs
• 1 tablespoon Honey (optional for extra sweetness)
• 1 tablespoon Oil or butter (for greasing the pan)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Grease an 8-inch square baking pan or a similarly sized oven-safe dish with oil or butter and set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free cornmeal, gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, milk, eggs, and honey (if using) until well combined.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can affect the texture.

Step 6

Transfer the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
