Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup whole milk
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 large eggs

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

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

Step 4

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should remain slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–22 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 let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 8

Serve warm with butter or honey for extra richness.
