Ingredients
1 Cup Cornmeal1 Cup AP Flour1/3 Cup Sugar 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda1/2 Teaspoon Salt1 egg1 Cup "Buttermilk" (Add one tablespoon of vinegar to a measuring cup and fill the rest of the way with soymilk)1/3 Cup Oil1/4 Cup Very Warm Water
Directions
1) Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place skillet into the oven to heat up.

2) Sift together all dry ingredients.

3) Pour the oil, 1 cup of the "buttermilk", 1 Tbsp honey and the water into the dry ingredients and whisk to combine. The batter should be somewhat thin and puffy (i.e. the leavening agents should really be working), if not add the other 1/2 cup of "buttermilk". To be honest I always need all 1 1/2 cups.

4) Carefully remove skillet form the oven and spray, spray, spray that sucker because what stinks worse than going to all this trouble to only have it stick... Okay now you are ready to pour the batter into the skillet.

5) Bake for 25-35 minutes or until a inserted toothpick comes clean.

6) Let cool for a few minutes and then carefully flip the cornbread onto a plate. Drizzle 2 Tbsp honey over top.

7) Eat and Enjoy!!!
