Honey Cornbread

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare an 8x8 pan with nonstick cooking spray (or butter) and set aside.
2. 2
   To a small bowl, combine the corn meal, flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Whisk all of dry ingredients to combine (my way of sifting). Set aside.
3. 3
   In a large mixing bowl, combine the buttermilk, honey, eggs and melted butter. Whisk to combine. With a rubber scraper or whisk, gently fold in the dry ingredients until just incorporated. Be careful not to overwork the batter.
4. 4
   Pour batter into prepared 8x8 pan and place in preheated oven and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center of the pan.
5. 5
   Allow cornbread to cool directly in pan for 5 minutes. Once it has cooled, you can turn it out onto a cooling rack to cool for an additional 15 minutes.
6. 6
   This cornbread goes great with a bowl of chili.
