Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan with butter or oil.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup cornmeal, 1 cup flour, 2 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat 1 egg, then stir in 1 cup milk. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined—batter should be lumpy.
Step 4
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20-25 minutes.
Step 5
Let cool for 5 minutes, then cut into squares and serve warm with butter.
