Method 6 steps
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a corn stick pan well, and preheat inside the oven. Cast iron works best.
Combine corn meal, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl.
Add egg, sugar, and shortening. Beat until fairly smooth (about 1 minute).
Pour into the hot, well-greased cornstick pan.
Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown. If corn is added to batter, increase time a little.
Serve hot and buttered.
