Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or cast-iron skillet with nonstick cooking spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda until evenly combined.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, vegetable oil, and egg until smooth and well blended.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Gently fold the ingredients together with a spatula or wooden spoon, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or skillet, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the dish or skillet for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm with butter, honey, or a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired. Enjoy!
