– 1 cup cornmeal – 1 cup all-purpose flour – 1/4 cup granulated sugar – 1 tbsp baking powder – 1/2 tsp salt – 1 cup milk – 2 large eggs – 1/4 cup melted butter
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking dish. This helps the cornbread bake evenly and prevents it from sticking to the pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined and there are no lumps in the mixture.
In a separate bowl, mix milk, eggs, and melted butter. Stir until smooth and well blended to make sure the eggs and butter are fully mixed in.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix or the cornbread may turn out dense.
Pour the batter into the greased pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your warm, moist homemade cornbread with butter, honey, or your favorite chili dish!
