  5. Finally, add the box of Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix and mix well.

Pouring melting butter into a baking dish.

Melt the butter and pour it into a greased 8″ x 8″ (or 9″ x 9″) baking dish.

I used a stoneware baking dish for this recipe, but a glass dish or a cast-iron skillet will work perfectly for the recipe.

I happened to use a 9″ x 9″ dish, but 8″ x 8″ will work perfectly, as well.

You can grease the pan with some nonstick cooking spray.

Add the Jiffy mixture to the casserole dish and spread it out a little. Bake for one hour at 350 degrees.

I just let the butter go where it wanted to go, and it turned out so good. Such great butter flavor throughout.

The easy dish cooks up a golden brown top layer that is divine.

TIP: Be sure to place a cookie sheet underneath the baking dish, as the butter can sometimes run over).

Optional Ingredients

You can add different ingredients to the Jiffy cornbread mix to give your side dish a different flavor. The recipe is perfect for holiday dinners (it’s a holiday staple around our house) or any gathering.

Love this recipe so much!! I have to triple it this year and use a foil pan, any tips?!

That's great to hear! If you triple it and it's in a large pan, it might get done cooking faster, so be sure to check it early. Happy Thanksgiving!

That should have been doubled not doubles. Sirry

Julie Pollitt

Saturday 18th of November 2023

That's ok! I knew what you meant. You can double this and use a 9x13 pan. It will probably take less time to bake, so check about 15 minutes early and see if it's done. Keep baking if not quite done. Hope you love it!

Can you add two cans of corn (instead of one can) along with the creamed corn so that it is "cornier". Thanks

Hi Glenda, I honestly am not sure. I haven't tried that. But, I'm never against things that add more corn. If you decide to try, let me know how it turns out.
