- 1 box Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
- 2 Tbsp. melted butter I use unsalted
- ⅓ cup milk - I used 2% but you can substitute whatever you have on hand
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 15 oz. can of sweet corn drained
- 1 medium Jalapeno diced - or 2 Tbsp. of canned jalapeno diced
- 1 large egg
Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Using a large mixing bowl, add the corn muffin mix and all of the other ingredients and mix until the dough is moist
Grease an 8x8 pan and pour the mixture into the pan
Bake at 375 degrees for about 25-35 minutes - or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean
Bread will still be very moist when done, don't let that confuse you with it not being cooked
Nutrition Facts are only an estimate
- Adjust the baking time per baking dish. A loaf pan that will give you the thickest bread will need more time to bake - probably about 35 minutes. An 8 x 8-inch pan will need about 25 minutes. Muffins will only take about 15-20 minutes
- *If you want this bread to pack a little heat, then add some seeds from the Jalapeno - the heat is the white center of the jalapeno. Simply remove the inside of the jalapeno and scrape the inside to remove and white veins
Tips for a Double Batch with Cream Style Corn:
- If you want to double the recipe and add cream-style corn, double the cornbread boxes, cheese, jalapeno, and eggs. Only use 2 Tbsp. of milk. Use creamed corn, but leave out the whole kernel of corn. Only use 2 Tbsp. of melted butter. Of course, You'll need a 9x13 pan and bake for 25 minutes or until done
