Ingredients

• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for greasing the skillet or pan)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a 9-inch cast-iron skillet or baking dish in the oven to heat while preparing the batter.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and honey until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—do not overmix.

Step 5

Carefully remove the heated skillet or baking dish from the oven, and grease it with the vegetable oil. Make sure the oil evenly coats the bottom and sides.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the hot skillet or prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let the cornbread cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 9

Optional: Drizzle with additional honey or serve with butter for extra deliciousness!
