Dressing vs Stuffing
When it comes to the terminology "dressing" or "stuffing", depends on where you are from. Typically, stuffing is used mostly in the northern or western part of the United States and dressing is used in the southern part. Whether you are eating dressing or stuffing both are equally delicious.
Ingredients
Jiffy Cornbread Mix- I used one box of the mix, but this recipe can be easily doubled.
Sausage- Precooked Italian sausage crumble or breakfast sausage.
Butter- Salted or Unsalted.
Garlic- Fresh is best, but prepared will save you time.
Onion- Fresh chopped to your preference. I like mine finely diced.
Celery- Fresh and finely chopped.
Aeromatics- Fresh parsely, thyme, and sage.
How to Make Jiffy Cornbread Stuffing
Follow the ingredients and baking directions on the Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix Box. Then cool it and cut into cubes, no toasting required. Add the fully cooked sausage or meat of choice, vegetables, aeromatics, stock or broth.
Bake it in a casserole dish or a muffin pan to make easy to serve cornbread “stuffins”.
Make Ahead
You can also bake the jiffy cornbread up to 3 days ahead of time. Make ahead the full recipe up to two days ahead of time and bake it the day of serving.
Serving Cornbread Stuffing Muffins or “Stuffins”
Individual single serve cups of stuffing muffins are easy to serve at Thanksgiving or holiday parties. They have a crisp and toasty edge and soft moist flavorful inside, a real crowd pleaser.
Baking them in muffin liners will make it easy to remove the stuffing bites. They are fun to eat and kid friendly. Just peel the liner from the moist stuffing and enjoy.
