Southern Cornbread

This is the one I use. You can bake it as muffins or in a pone. For best results use a cast iron pan to bake it in. The lighter weight newer stuff just does not do it justice .

4 cup and 2 tablespoons
cornmeal
1/4 cup and 2 tablespoons all-
purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly grease or line 12 muffin cups.
2. In a large bowl, mix together cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar. In a separate bowl, combine buttermilk, eggs and vegetable oil; beat well. Pour buttermilk mixture into flour mixture; stir until blended. Pour batter into prepared muffin cups.
3. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
