1 cup yellow corn meal
1 cup flour
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
1 egg
1 cup milk
3 tablespoons melted butter or shortening

Preheat oven to 375°F.

Combine corn meal, flour, baking powder, sugar and salt until well mixed and no streaks remain.

Beat egg well, add milk. Pour milk and egg mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until mixed. Add melted butter or shortening.

Bake in a well-greased shallow pan in oven or in heated muffin tins. Well seasoned cast iron muffin tins or frying pans work well.
