Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk

  • 1/4 cup butter, melted

  • 1 large egg

  • 1-1/4 cups yellow, white, or blue cornmeal

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup sugar

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

  • Heat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease bottom and side of an 8-10 inch cast-iron skillet with butter.

  • In a large bowl, whisk together milk, butter, and egg. Stir in remaining ingredients all at once just until flour is moistened. The batter should be a little lumpy. Pour into skillet.

  • Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
