Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place 9-inch cast-iron skillet in oven to warm it.

Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Beat cornmeal mixture, eggs, and butter into the flour mixture until you have a smooth batter, about 1 minute.
Remove skillet from oven. Swish vegetable oil in the skillet to coat; pour off excess.
Pour batter into the skillet.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 18 to 23 minutes. Cut into wedges to serve.

Personal Notes:
I think this recipe is better than the buttermilk skillet cornbread in this book. I used white cornmeal versus yellow - reminded me more of mom's cornbread.
Definitely preheat the cast iron skillet then when you pull out of oven put your butter in pan and then the batter.
