2 eggs
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2/3 cups yellow cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup of melted butter

Preheat older ovens to 400ºF, newer ovens to 375ºF.

Whisk the egg and sugar together. In a separate bowl, mix all the dry ingredients.

Melt the butter and set aside to cool.

Add the dry ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk...whisking in between to mix everything evenly.  Mix in the melted butter at the end and pour into a greased skillet. Bake at 375ºF until sides come away from the skillet.  Turn the oven to broil at 375ºF to brown the top for about 3 minutes or so.
