Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that the cornbread bakes evenly.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Baking Pan

    Grease an 8-inch square baking dish or a cast-iron skillet with butter or cooking spray, ensuring it’s evenly coated.

Mixing Ingredients

  1. 3

    Combine Dry Ingredients

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

  2. 4

    Mix Wet Ingredients

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

  3. 5

    Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.

Baking

  1. 6

    Pour Batter

    Pour the cornbread batter into the prepared baking dish or skillet, spreading it evenly.

  2. 7

    Bake

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

  3. 8

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, optionally with butter or honey on top.
