Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter
- 1 cup (8 oz) sour cream
- 5 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 boxes Jiffy corn muffin mix
Instructions
RECIPE PREP: Grease baking pan(s) with butter. Adjust oven rack to the middle position. Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Crack eggs into a large batter bowl. Whisk well.
- Add sour cream, melted butter and sugar. Mix until fully combined.
- Add Jiffy corn muffin mix to the bowl. Stir until combined, but don’t over-mix. The batter will be slightly lumpy, and that’s okay!
- Transfer batter to prepared baking pan(s).
- In a convection oven, bake 35-40 minutes or until top is golden and the center’s cooked through. For a conventional oven, bake 50 to 55 minutes. After the first 15 to 25 minutes of baking time, or once a crust has firmly formed on the top, tent the baking dish with foil to prevent over-browning.
Notes
Best pan sizes for this recipe: For cornbread with a nice tall height, use an 8 x 8-inch baker. For shorter pieces, or to stretch this recipe to achieve more servings, use a 9 x 13-inch baker. If making muffins, use a 12-well muffin pan.
Expert Tip: If you only have 1 box of Jiffy on hand, you can still make this cornbread recipe. Just cut the ingredients in half, and use an 8 x 8-inch pan. Bake 18-20 minutes, or until the top is golden and the middle is cooked through.
