Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl: 1.5 cups cornmeal, 0.5 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.

Stir the dry ingredients together until well mixed and set aside.

Melt 1 stick of butter or margarine in the microwave for about 1 minute, then let it cool to room temperature.

In another bowl, beat 2 eggs for about 4 minutes until well blended.

Add 1 cup buttermilk to the eggs and mix well.

Add the melted butter to the egg and buttermilk mixture.

Pour in 2/3 cups of vegetable oil and 3 tablespoons of honey, then stir for at least 2 minutes to ensure the honey is well blended.

Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined, ensuring the batter is not too thick or too wet.

If the batter is too thick, add more cornmeal, not flour, to maintain the desired consistency.
