1 1/2 c. white corn meal
1/2 c. white flour
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tbsp. baking powder
1 to 2 c. buttermilk (preferably 2)
1/2 c. corn oil

Mix together first 5 ingredients. Add buttermilk and corn oil, mixing lightly and quickly. Pour into 10-inch deep-dish pie plate. Bake at 400 degrees (cold oven) approximately 30 minutes.
