Directions:
Preheat oven to 425º.
In a medium bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a large measuring cup, whisk together buttermilk, egg and egg yolk, pour the buttermilk mixture in with the cornmeal mixture and stir until well combined. Add the butter to a cast iron skillet (at least a 10 inch) and place in oven until the butter is melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove skillet from the oven, and swirl the butter around to make sure the skillet bottom and sides are well coated. Pour the batter into the skillet and smooth out the top with a rubber spatula. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
