Jill's Cornbread

-= Ingredients =-
1 cup medium yellow cornmeal
1 c. white flour
up to 1/4 c. sugar
4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 c. butter ; shortening or bacon grease
1 c. buttermilk
1 large egg ; lightly beaten

-= Instructions =-
Blend the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl; stir in the butter (softened),
shortening or bacon grease. Add the buttermilk and egg and stir well.
Mixture will be a little lumpy. Pour into a lightly greased pan (I use an 8
inch cast iron skillet). Bake at 425F until golden brown, about 25 minutes.
