How to Make Whole Wheat Cornbread

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups whole wheat cornmeal, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 4 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together ½ cup honey, ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 cup milk, and 2 large eggs.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the cornbread is golden brown.
