Ingredients:

• 1 cup cornmeal
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan or a similar-sized ovenproof dish.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, and eggs.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
5. Pour the cornbread batter into the greased baking pan.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick or knife inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
7. Allow the cornbread to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
