Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F. Place two tablespoons of butter in the cast-iron skillet and place the skillet in the oven for about five minutes while you mix the cornbread batter.

Step 2

To a medium mixing bowl, add the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Use a whisk to mix the dry ingredients together.

Step 3

To a small mixing bowl, add the buttermilk, honey (if using), and eggs. Use a whisk to beat the wet ingredients together until combined. Pour the melted butter into the batter and mix with the rubber spatula until combined.

Step 4

Make a well in the center of the cornmeal mixture and pour the buttermilk mixture into the well. Use a rubber spatula to mix the batter until no more dry cornmeal is visible. Remove the skillet from the oven and carefully pour the batter into the hot skillet.

Step 5

Bake the cornbread n the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown on top. Allow the cornbread to cool for 10 minutes, slice, and enjoy! Serve slices with butter slathered on them if desired.
