1. Preheat the Oven:
– Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish or a cast-iron skillet.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
– In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients:
– In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and honey until smooth.
4. Combine Mixtures:
– Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. If using, fold in the corn kernels.
5. Bake the Cornbread:
– Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or skillet. 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.
6. Cool and Serve:
– Allow the cornbread to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm, drizzled with additional honey or butter if desired.
