Time 1h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for buttering the pan
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting the pan (see Cook's Note)
1 cup stone-ground cornmeal
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup buttermilk
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and lightly flour a 9-inch cake pan. Be sure to remove any excess flour from the pan.
  • Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
  • Whisk together 8 tablespoons of the butter with the buttermilk, eggs and vanilla in a small bowl until smooth.
  • Pour the butter mixture into the cornmeal mixture and stir until thoroughly combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a cake tester comes out clean, about 30 minutes.
  • Let cool for 15 minutes before removing from the pan. Mix the honey and the remaining 2 tablespoons butter together in a small bowl, then spread all over the top of the cornbread to finish. Serve immediately or at room temperature.
