Ingredients
- 1 cup stoneground yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup honey
- 1 large egg
- 4 teaspoons unsalted butter melted
- 1 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spray a 9x13” baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Alternately, you can brush the dish with a high smoking point oil or butter, too.
- In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk until combined.
- In a smaller bowl, combine the honey, egg, melted butter and milk, and whisk until incorporated.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix with a rubber spatula until the batter comes together.
- Pour the batter into the baking dish, and smooth out the top with an angled spatula or a butter knife.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top has browned slightly. Carefully insert a toothpick into the center of the cornbread. If it has crumbs when removed, you’re good to go! If it still has batter on the end, bake for another 5(ish) minutes, then test again.
- Enjoy warm with your dinner and enjoy slightly warm.
Notes
You can use any type of milk you have on hand. We've successfully made this recipe with nonfat milk and whole milk. Please note that the whole milk version packed a lot more flavor, but the nonfat milk version was not lacking.
