Yes, it's a crumbly quick bread and not a cake.

When I say to bake it in a cast iron pan, I mean to bake it, not cook it
on top of the stove -- you grease the cast iron pan, pour the batter in,
and put the cast iron pan in the preheated oven. It makes the outside
crust have a better texture, and it cooks a little quicker.

If the texture of that recipe makes it too dry for you, adjust the flour
and cornmeal proportions. The more cornmeal, the drier it will be.
