In a large bowl, stir together dry ingredients. In a small bowl, whisk together milk and egg until just combined. Add butter to flour-cornmeal mixture and beat with an electric mixer until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk-egg mixture and beat until combined. Pour batter into lightly sprayed or oiled 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan.

Bake until a tester comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool on a rack for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of the pan and turn out on rack to cool. Cut into thick slices to serve.
