Steps
- Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly brush a 9x5-inch loaf pan with a little of the olive oil from the measured total.
- In a small skillet over low heat, warm half of the remaining olive oil with the garlic and three-quarters of the rosemary, stirring, until the garlic is soft and pale gold, 5 to 6 minutes. Pour into a bowl and let cool for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and black pepper.
- Into the cooled garlic-rosemary oil, whisk the yogurt, milk, eggs, honey and the rest of the olive oil until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and fold just until no dry streaks remain; a few lumps are fine.
- Scrape the batter into the pan, smooth the top and sprinkle with the remaining quarter of the rosemary.
- Bake 45 to 50 minutes, until the top is golden and a toothpick in the center comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes, then turn out and cool on the rack at least 30 minutes more before cutting into 12 slices.
