Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
- 1 large Egg
- 0.33 cup Milk
- 2 medium Fresh jalapeño peppers, diced (seeds and membranes removed for less heat)
- 1 cup Roasted corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for added flavor)
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter (for greasing the skillet)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
If using fresh corn, roast it on a hot skillet or grill until lightly charred. Set aside.
Grease a 9-inch cast iron skillet or an 8x8-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter to prevent sticking and add flavor.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix, egg, and milk. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Fold in the diced jalapeños, roasted corn kernels, and shredded cheddar cheese (if using) until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared skillet or baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the cornbread from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm with a dollop of butter or honey for added sweetness.
