Southern Corn Bread

1 cup yellow cornmeal 
4 tsp. aluminum free baking powder
1 cup all-purpose flour 
1 large organic or free range egg
1 tsp. sugar 
1 cup organic milk (or buttermilk)
1/2 tsp. sea salt 
1/2 cup melted organic butter

Preheat your oven to 425 F. Combine all dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl. Add the wet ingredients and stir until just blended. Don’t over blend; you want it to be slightly lumpy.

Grease a medium-sized cast iron skillet, heat it up on top of the stove, and then pour the batter into the pan. Bake this in the oven for approximately 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
