Cornbread Muffins

We’re proud Jiffy mix lovers over here – it’s a pantry staple we always keep on hand! While the classic recipe on the box is already a winner, we like to take it up a notch with a few of our favorite add-ins. This cornbread stays true to that nostalgic Jiffy flavor we all know and love, but with a little extra personality to make it even more irresistible. Whether you’re serving it with greens, chili, or just enjoying it with butter and honey, these simple tweaks make it even better!

Recipe

Yields 12 cornbread muffins

Ingredients
  • 2 boxes Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • ⅔ cup milk or buttermilk
  • Optional Add-Ins: 2 tablespoons honey (for added sweetness) or try these:
    • 1 can cream-style corn – adds a creamy, slightly sweet twist
    • 3 diced jalapeños + 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese – for a spicy, savory version
Recommended Equipment
Instructions
  1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line two muffin pans with cupcake liners or spray each cup with nonstick baking spray.
  2. Mix the Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the Jiffy mix, eggs, and milk or buttermilk until smooth and fully combined.
  3. Add the Extras: Stir in any optional add-ins like honey, cream style corn, jalapeños and cheddar, or your own favorite mix-ins – until evenly distributed.
  4. Fill the Muffin Pans: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each one about halfway full.
  5. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Finish & Serve: Optional but highly recommended: brush the tops with melted butter while warm. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes: There are so many fun ways to elevate cornbread muffins! Try mixing in crispy bacon and chives, crumbled sausage, or even dried cranberries for a sweet-savory twist. Don’t be afraid to experiment – you might just discover your new favorite version!
