Cheddar Corn Bread

3 cups flour
1 cup corn meal
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp of baking powder
3 eggs
2 cups milk
2 sticks unsalted butter melted
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Mix dry ingredients in one bowl. Mix the wet ingredients together slightly beating the eggs and pouring the melted butter into the wet ingredients. Mix the wet mixture into the dry mixture slowly using a wooden spoon. Do not overmix the batter. Once mixed, mix in your cheese and let it sit in the bowl for 20 minutes at room temperature. Set oven to 350 degrees and butter a 9X13 pan. Pour the mixture in the pan and lightly top with extra cheese. Bake 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. I whipped up some honey into butter and it tasted very good with it. I may add a 1/4 cup of honey to the recipe next time. I like sweet cornbread. This is not sweet, but a little salty, so once you add the honey butter it tastes really good.

Thanks for the posting this recipe Lora! I like sweet cornbread too, so I will take your advice and add honey into the batter. :)
