All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and butter until well combined. Set this aside.
In a larger mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well with a spoon until you have a smooth batter, trying not to over mix the batter.
Grease a glass, microwave-safe baking dish with oil. Pour the batter into the oiled dish.
Place the baking dish in the microwave and cook for approximately 3 minutes on high or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If your microwave doesn’t have a rotating tray, rotate the dish at 1-1/2 minutes.
Remove the bread from the microwave and allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Cut into individual pieces and serve either warm or at room temperature.
Enjoy!
