Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups yellow cornmeal
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp butter melted and cooled
- 1 cup buttermilk use full-fat
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp honey
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 8x8 metal baking pan with shortening or vegetable oil. Pop it in the preheating oven to warm it up.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the yellow cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt until very well combined.
- Melt the butter in a glass measuring cup or microwave safe bowl. Allow the butter to cool a bit.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs and vanilla. Slow pour the melted butter into the mixture, whisking constantly, until smooth.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Mixed until all the dry ingredients are moistened. Some lumps are OK.
- Spread the batter evenly into the hot baking pan. Bake the cornbread for about 25 minutes, just until done. Start checking it at about 20 minutes so that you don't over bake it.
- Drizzle the honey over the top of the hot cornbread. Use a small offset spatula to evenly spread the honey. Allow the cornbread to cool for about 20 minutes. Slice and serve warm.
