Ingredients:
– 1 cup cornmeal

– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 2 large eggs
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure all the dry ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, and eggs until well combined.
4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in a tough cornbread.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Once baked, remove the cornbread from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing and serving. This cornbread is best enjoyed warm with a pat of butter and a drizzle of honey.
