Southern Sweet Cornbread
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cup Buttermilk at room temperature
- 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
- 1/2 cup Unsalted butter melted
- 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 Eggs at room temperature
- 4 tbsp Honey
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F/200°C. Line a 9 inch square pan with parchment paper. Or you can use a grease cast iron skillet.
- In a medium size mixing bowl, add the egg and sugar and whisk that together until they are well combined. Whisk in the melted butter and honey until they are mixed well together.
- Sift in the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt into the wet mixture then fold in the buttermilk. Once everything has been mixed together, pour the batter into the baking dish or skillet.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in comes out clean. Enjoy it while it is still warm.
Notes
- You can use white cornmeal for this recipe but if you want that golden yellow colour when it is done baking then use yellow cornmeal.
- You can also skip out on the sugar and honey if you want a savoury cornbread.
