4.2 from 70 reviews

Moist, tender cornbread lightly sweetened with honey, perfectly complementing soups, chili, or barbecue as a delicious side dish.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 9 servings

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/3 cup melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease an 8-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the milk, eggs, honey, and melted butter, mixing thoroughly to blend.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with dry ingredients and stir just until the batter is blended; avoid overmixing to keep the cornbread tender.
  5. Pour Batter and Bake: Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the cornbread to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Brush warm cornbread with extra honey for added sweetness.
  • Serve with butter to enhance the flavor.
