Instructions:
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
-
In a separate smaller mixing bowl, beat the eggs until they are well combined and slightly frothy.
-
To the beaten eggs, add the heavy cream, oil, and honey. Beat the mixture until everything is thoroughly combined and forms a smooth consistency.
-
Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until the dry ingredients are just moistened. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in a dense cornbread.
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9-inch baking pan generously with butter or cooking spray to prevent the cornbread from sticking.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula to ensure uniform thickness.
-
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Once baked, remove the cornbread from the oven and allow it to cool slightly in the pan for about 5 minutes.
-
After cooling slightly, carefully transfer the cornbread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your delicious homemade honey cornbread as a side to soups, stews, chili, or simply as a snack on its own! 🌽🍯
