Directions

Step

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking pan.

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter.

Step

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Step

Pour the batter into the greased baking pan, spreading it evenly.

Step

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.

Step

Allow the Classic Cornbread to cool in the pan for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips for this recipe

Enhance the flavor by adding ingredients like diced jalapeños, shredded cheese, or corn kernels to the batter before baking. Serve warm with a dollop of honey or butter for an extra touch of indulgence.
