Basic Cornbread

INGREDIENTS

1/3   cup all-purpose flour

1    cup yellow or white cornmeal

1    teaspoon baking powder
½   teaspoon baking soda

½   teaspoon salt

1    cup milk

2    tablespoons melted butter

1    large egg, beaten

METHOD

Preheat the oven to 325 F. Grease the sides and bottom of an 8 or 9 inch baking dish.

Sift the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a medium  bowl. In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter and egg, Add the dry ingredients to the large bowl and stir to combine.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake until golden brown around the edges, about 20 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the  middle comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack before cutting into serving pieces.

Cooks Note: I did  not have any cornmeal handy, so I used Polenta instead, first placing it into a food processor and grinding to a finer consistency.
