Heat oven to 400 degrees.
When hot, heat an 8-inch cast-iron divided triangle pan in oven until
very hot, 10 to 15 minutes. Combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking
powder, and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
Combine all but about 1 teaspoon of the butter, buttermilk, and egg.
Stir into the dry ingredients just until blended. Remove triangle pan
from oven to a trivet or hot pad. Using a pastry brush, quickly coat
pan with the remaining teaspoon of melted butter. Pour batter into
pan, filling each triangle about two-thirds full. Bake until golden
brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack, and cool for 5
minutes. Remove bread from pan, and cool completely on rack.
Makes 8 triangles.
