Servings: 6

Equipment

  • 6x6 or 7x5 Baking Pan
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Whisk
  • Rubber spatula
  • Measuring Tools
  • Strainer or Fine Sieve
  • Fork or Spoon
  • Knife and Cutting Board
  • Disposable Gloves

Ingredients

  • 1 8.5oz Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
  • 1-2 Fresh Jalapeño (1 or ½ diced and the other in 6 round slices)
  • ½ cup Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
  • 1 Egg
  • ½ cup Whole Milk, Half and Half or Buttermilk
  • ¼ cup Sour Cream
  • ¼ cup Butter, Melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 6x6 or 7x5 baking pan.
  • In a large mixing bowl add jiffy cornbread mix. I like to sift the dry mix into the bowl to remove any lumps or use a whisk. Set aside.
  • In a small mixing bowl add milk, egg, sour cream, and melted butter. Mix well.
  • Add wet mixture into sifted jiffy cornbread mix. Mix until just combined and try not to over mix the batter.
  • Fold in chopped jalapeños and shredded cheddar.
  • Pour batter into the greased baking pan. Top with the 6 sliced jalapeños.
  • Place into the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool. Cut into squares serve with butter and honey, if preferred. Enjoy.
