Ingredients
- 1 cup Yellow corn meal
- 1 cup All purpose flour
- 1 tbsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 2 Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 1/3 cup Honey
- 1 stick Unsalted butter - melted
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
Instructions
- In a medium sized bowl whisk the eggs. Add the honey, milk, melted butter and mix again.
- In a separate bowl add the flour, corn meal, salt and baking powder. Mix the ingredients together.
- Pour the wet mix over the dry ingredients and gently fold the batter together.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Add 2tbsp unsalted butter to a 10" cast iron skillet and place in the oven to preheat and melt.
- Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and pour in the cornbread mixture. Bake for 35-45 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Notes
- Don’t overmix the batter—gentle folding keeps it fluffy.
- Preheat your skillet for that signature crispy edge.
- Let the cornbread rest for 10 minutes before slicing so it stays moist.
- Add mix-ins like jalapeños, cheddar, corn kernels, or bacon if you want more flavor.
