Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature while you prepare the batter.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until evenly incorporated.

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and honey until well blended.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix as it may make the cornbread tough.

  5. 5

    Prepare Baking Dish

    Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish with a little butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Pour the cornbread batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. 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.

  7. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Once baked, remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Cut into squares and serve warm.
