Description

This 100% Whole Grain Cornbread recipe is made with real butter and sweetened with honey. It takes about 5 minutes to make and is a delicious whole grain version of old-fashioned cornbread.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Cornmeal
  • 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour (finely ground and sifted white whole wheat berries if grinding your own)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.Grease a 9-inch cast iron skillet or 9×9 inch baking dish and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl whisk together the buttermilk, honey, eggs, and melted butter. Add all of the dry ingredients to the wet and stir quickly just until a thick batter comes together. Don’t over mix.
  3. Add the batter to the prepared pan, spread it around evenly, and then bake in the hot oven until the top is golden brown and a tooth pick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve warm.
