Ingredients

  • 1 ⅓ cups yellow cornmeal
  • 1 ⅓ cups flour
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 5-6 tablespoons butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • ¾ cup milk or almond milk
  • ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Begin to heat the cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add butter. Heat until browned and beginning to smell nutty, about 7 minutes. Stir often. Remove from heat once browned.
  • Meanwhile whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Whisk eggs, honey, almond milk, and Greek yogurt in a large bowl. Slowly stir in cooled butter, leaving some on the sides of the pan to grease it. Feel free to add an additional tab of butter to make sure the pan will not stick.
  • Slowly stir the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Pour this mixture into the prepared cast iron skillet. Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes, until it springs back when touched. Serve with additional butter and honey.
