My take on Northern cornbread, substituting masa harina for cornmeal.  From Erica Kastner of Buttered Side Up.
Ingredients
Directions

Content: Dried corn is soaked/cooked in an alkaline solution, which is usually lime water (not from lime juice), also called calcium hydroxide. This process is known as nixtamalization. It makes the corn more digestible, and allows you to absorb the niacin, AKA vitamin B3. In fact, if you eat a diet high in corn that isn’t properly prepared, it can lead to malnutrition! But let’s get on with the cornbread…
The rest of the recipe is very similar to traditional Yankee (or Northern) cornbread. Whisk together the masa harina, all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. In a measuring cup, mix the milk, maple syrup, and egg together with a fork. Pour in some melted butter. Make sure to leave about 2 tablespoons in the pan! Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients.
