• 1 cup sour cream
• 2/3 cup milk
• 2 (8.5 ounce) Jiffy Cornbread Mix

2. Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and vegetable oil until well combined.
3. Step 3: Add the honey, sour cream, and milk to the bowl, whisking until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.
4. Step 4: Stir in the Jiffy Cornbread Mix, breaking up any large clumps to ensure the batter is smooth and fully incorporated.

Tips & Variations

• Add a cup of corn kernels or diced jalapeños to the batter for extra texture and kick.
• Make it sweeter by drizzling extra honey over warm slices before serving.

Store leftover cornbread wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate up to one week or freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, warm slices in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes or microwave briefly until heated through.

Dry Ingredients

• 2 (8.5 ounce) boxes Jiffy Cornbread Mix

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking and set it aside.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 eggs and 1/3 cup vegetable oil until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
3. Add Honey, Sour Cream, and Milk: Whisk in 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 cup sour cream, and 2/3 cup milk to the egg and oil mixture until fully incorporated and smooth.
4. Combine with Jiffy Mix: Gradually stir in the 2 boxes (17 ounces total) of Jiffy Cornbread Mix into the wet ingredients. Break up any large clumps of the mix to ensure an even batter.

Notes

• Be sure to break up clumps in the Jiffy Cornbread Mix to avoid uneven texture.
• Using sour cream adds moisture and slight tang, making the cornbread more tender.
• Check cornbread with a toothpick at 25 minutes to avoid overbaking.
• You can substitute milk with buttermilk for a richer flavor.
• For a crispier top, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking, watching carefully to avoid burning.
