Cornbread with Cake Mix
Description
The Cornbread with Cake Mix recipe blends one box of yellow cake mix with two boxes of cornbread mix, combined with milk, eggs, melted butter, and water to create a thick batter. Baking at 325°F for around 40 minutes for a large pan or about 18-20 minutes for muffins results in a cornbread that has a firm yet moist texture and slightly sweet flavor due to the added cake mix. This approach modifies traditional cornbread by adding a cake-like softness and sweetness, making it less crumbly and drier than standard recipes.
Serving this cornbread complements savory dishes, enhancing meals with a slightly sweet bread side. Muffin versions offer convenient individual portions. The toothpick test is used to check doneness, ensuring a fully cooked center.
Adjusting the ratio by using only one box of cornbread mix and baking at a higher temperature can produce an even more cake-like result. This flexibility allows cooks to tailor texture and sweetness to preference.
Ingredients
- 1 box yellow cake mix
- 17 ounces cornbread mix 2 boxes, brand Jiffy
- 1/3 cup milk
- 4 egg
- 5 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Mix cake mix and corn bread mix together in a large bowl.
- Add remaining ingredients and stir well. The batter should be nice and thick.
- Pour into a greased 9x13 pan or lined muffin tin.
- Bake at 325-degrees for 40 minutes, or until baked through. Use the "toothpick test" to determine doneness. If baking in a muffin tin, bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown and baked through.
Notes
- For a more cake-like texture, use only one box of Jiffy cornbread mix and bake at 350°F for 25 minutes, checking with a toothpick for doneness.
