Preheat oven to 400°F. While the oven is preheating, place an oven-safe cast iron skillet in it to heat.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup yellow cornmeal, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Add the buttermilk, cottage cheese, eggs, and oil. Stir just until combined. Stir in the corn.
1 cup buttermilk, 1 cup cottage cheese, 3 large eggs, 1/4 cup oil, 1 cup frozen corn
Add the butter to the preheated skillet. Once the butter is melted, pour the cornbread batter into the hot pan, then bake for 25-35 minutes until golden brown on top and a toothpick comes out clean with just a few crumbs when inserted into the center of the cornbread.
1 Tablespoon salted butter
Slice and serve with butter and honey.
