Homemade Cornbread
Serves 8 to 12
My best cornbread recipe! This lightly sweet, moist cornbread is easy to make. It's a delicious side dish for any soup or chili.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- 1 cup cornmeal, spooned and leveled
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup milk or buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- ¼ cup melted unsalted butter or neutral oil, plus more for the pan
- ¼ cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, sugar, and honey.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the top springs back to the touch and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 20 minutes before slicing and serving.
