Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon softened butter for greasing
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/4 cup honey
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9 or 10-inch square baking dish or a cast iron skillet using the softened butter.
- In a sizable bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix well.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and honey.
- Gently stir until the mixture is just combined—be careful not to overmix!
- Transfer the batter into your prepared baking pan. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the top is a lovely golden brown.
- Allow the cornbread to cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting it into squares. Serve warm and enjoy!
