Cornbread masa

I bought a 5lb bag of instant masa corn flour and didn't realize that it wasn't like regular corn meal.  So I decided to make cornbread with it.

It was the best corn bread I have ever had.

I found the recipe at https://www.chowhound.com/recipes/masa-cornbread-11286


Ingredients
1.5c masa flour
1/2c flout
2t baking powder
1t salt
1scant T sugar (whatever sweetness)
2T + 2T butter room temp
2 eggs
1.5c milk

Directions
-Preheat oven to 425F
-Melt 2T of butter into the cast iron pan.
-Mix dry ingredients.
-Mash 2T of butter into dry ingredients.
-Add eggs and enough milk to make a batter (around 1.5c, takes more than reg cornmeal).
-Spread melted butter around skillet and sides.
-Bake 20-25min at 425F until brown around edges and light brown on top.
-Flip out of pan if you want to keep the bottom crust crisp.
