Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F and ensure a rack is placed in the center position.

Step 2

Place 6 muffin cup liners in a muffin pan, and then spray the liners lightly with cooking spray--cornbread is sticky stuff!

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk and melted butter.

Step 5

Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, let set for one minute before scooping it into muffin cups and baking for 12-15 minutes. The muffins are done when a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Serve immediately with extra butter.
