Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Mix Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter until well combined.
4
Combine Mixtures
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.

Pour the batter into a greased 8x8 inch baking dish and spread evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
