The honey in this cornbread helps it browns nicely in the hot oven. For a crustier cornbread, heat the greased pan in the oven before adding the batter. The cornbread isn't overly sweet. If you like a sweeter cornbread, add about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of granulated sugar or brown sugar.

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups stone-ground cornmeal
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
1/4 cup honey

Heat the oven to 425 F / 220 C / Gas 7. Grease a 9-inch-square baking pan or spray the pan with baking spray.
Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs with the buttermilk, butter, and honey. Pour the egg mixture into the dry mixture and stir just until combined.
Immediately spread the batter in the prepared pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
