Preheat oven to 425°F. Place oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet and heat in oven.
Mix cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Carefully pour batter into hot skillet.
Bake 20-25 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm with butter.
Chef's Comfy Tip
Heating the skillet before adding the batter creates those irresistible crispy edges that make cast-iron cornbread so special.
