Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 large egg at room temperature
  • 1 cup sour cream at room temperature, 8 ounces
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 (8.5 ounce) Jiffy corn muffin mix boxes
  • 1 (14.75 ounce) creamed corn not drained, canned
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese grated sharp
  • 1 (4 ounce) Pimentos drained and patted dry, diced, jarred
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

  1. Place a deep 10-inch cast iron skillet (or a deep 9 x 9-inch or 11 x 7-inch baking dish) in a cold oven. Preheat oven to 375°F, leaving the skillet or pan in the oven while it heats.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, sour cream, oil, and honey until smooth. Add the corn muffin mix, creamed corn, salt, and garlic powder. Stir just until combined; do not over-mix. Fold in the cheese and pimentos.
  3. When the oven has come to temperature, place the butter in the hot skillet or pan. Use a brush to evenly spread the butter as it melts, greasing the pan on the bottom and sides. Pour batter into the hot, greased skillet.
  4. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

Notes

  • Room temperature ingredients (such as sour cream and eggs) blend more smoothly and easily than cold ingredients.
  • Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before baking if you have the time. This allows the baking powder or other leavening agents to activate and incorporate more air.
  • Don’t over-mix the batter or it can become tough and dense.
  • The total baking time will vary depending on the type of pan that you use, and on your individual oven. To check if the cornbread is done, insert a toothpick into the center and make sure it comes out clean.
  • If the top of the cornbread starts to get too dark before it’s done baking, cover loosely with foil.
  • Use full-fat sour cream. It adds a subtle tangy flavor, it keeps the cornbread moist, and it yields a tender crumb.
