1 cup sourdough starter**
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup cream
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 cup flour
1/4 cup raw honey
2 eggs (beaten)
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
In a glass bowl, stir together starter, milk, cream, cornmeal and flour. If needed, add more flour to make a thick batter. Cover and let stand for at least 2 hours (less if you have a warm kitchen).
Preheat oven and your cast-iron skillet to 400 melt butter in the pan, coating the sides as well to prevent sticking around the edges.
In a small bowl, Add 1/4 cup raw honey, whisk together with butter, eggs and salt. Sprinkle in the baking soda and baking powder and add to the sourdough mixture. Stir gently until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Pour the batter into the buttered cast Iron skillet and bake on the center rack for about 25 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick comes out clean. Remove from oven and cool for about 5 minutes and serve slathered with honey butter. Especially good served with a nice big pot of Beans with Ham or Homemade Chili.
