Corn Bread Recipe

Prepare the Oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9-inch square baking dish or a cast-iron skillet.

Mix Dry Ingredients

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

Combine Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, and melted butter until smooth.

Combine Mixtures

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

Bake the Corn Bread

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or skillet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Whipped Honey Butter

While the corn bread is baking, prepare the whipped honey butter by mixing together 1/2 cup softened unsalted butter with 1/4 cup honey in a bowl. Use a hand mixer to whip until light and fluffy.

Serve

Remove the corn bread from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving with the whipped honey butter.
