 ingredients

butter for greasing the pan

1 cup cornmeal

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour (you can use regular flour also)

2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

1 1/4 cup buttermilk

1 egg

5 tbsp. honey

3 tbsp. melted butter

directions

preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  grease an 8-inch square pan with butter.  combine dry ingredients in a bowl.  combine wet ingredients in a bowl.  mix together thoroughly but do not overmix or the corn bread will be dense.  pour into greased pan.  bake for 20 minutes or until center is firm to the touch (as soon as the center bounces back, take out the corn bread.  you don't want it to be dry!)  serve hot or at room temperature.
