Preheat oven to 400F. Oil a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Combine butter, oil, milk and egg in mixing bowl and whisk until well-blended.

Stir the flour, baking powder, cornmeal, sugar and salt together with a fork until well-mixed. To this dry mixture, add the liquid milk mixture and stir just until combined.

Pour into baking dish. Bake the cornbread until golden on top and a tester inserted in the middle comes out clean. Baking time is about 25 minutes.

Hint: If you are in a hurry you can use Jiffy cornbread mix (8 1/2 ounce size). To the dry mix, add 1/2 cup evaporated milk, 1 egg and 1 tablespoon melted butter in place of what is called for on the package.

Bake at 400F for 20 minutes. Bread should be golden brown and a tester plunged into its middle should come out clean.
