Equipment

  • Baking pan

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 cup fine cornmeal
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2.8 oz unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • cups light soft brown sugar
  • 2 eggs at room temperature
  • 1 cup whole milk at room temperature

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C). Prepare an 11x7-inch baking pan by greasing it and dusting lightly with flour. Set the pan aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together your dry ingredients: fine cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the melted unsalted butter, light soft brown sugar, eggs, and milk.
  • Create a well in the center of your dry ingredient mixture. Pour the wet ingredient mixture into this well.
  • Gently stir the ingredients together using a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing as this can lead to a tougher cornbread.
  • Pour the batter into your prepared baking pan, making sure it's spread evenly.
  • Bake in your preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until the cornbread is golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
  • Allow the cornbread to cool slightly on a wire rack before cutting into pieces and serving.
