Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.333 cup Honey
• 2 units Large eggs
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 0.5 cup Whole milk
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or a similar-sized pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and honey until smooth.

Step 3

Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Then stir in the buttermilk and whole milk until combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, gently folding them together with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix, as this can make the cornbread dense.

Step 6

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

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Optionally, drizzle additional honey over the top for extra sweetness.

Step 9

Slice into squares and serve warm. Enjoy your honey moist cornbread as a comforting and flavorful treat!
