Want some piping hot fresh corn muffins in a Jiffy? Well, here’s my favorite copycat recipe for those convenient, yet pricey little boxes that make about 6 muffins! Here is a simple, make ahead mix recipe for corn muffins in a jiffy!
This recipe is the perfect recreation of those handy little boxes that you can get at the grocery store. This mix recipe fits perfectly in a pint jar and when we’re ready to whip up a batch, we just add the wet ingredients right into the jar, no need to dirty another dish.
Copycat Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
You’ll Need:
2/3 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow corn meal
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/3 cup milk
1 egg
Combine the flour, corn meal, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl, mixing well. Add the vegetable oil, continue mixing well until the oil is fully incorporated and all lumps are gone. Congratulations, you now have a mix that is the equivalent of a box of Jiffy mix from the store.
Preheat the oven to 400F
How to Make Muffins
In a small bowl combine 1 mix recipe, 1 egg, and 1/3 c. milk, mixing lightly, just until all ingredients are blended. Do not overmix as this will make your muffins tough. Set the batter aside and let it rest 15 minutes or so. Lightly butter a muffin tin (or line with muffin tin papers). I prefer butter as it imparts a nice golden brown and tastes great!
Bake at 400F for about 15 minutes – these mixes can be made up ahead of time and stored in the pantry for up to 6 months without any issues.
These Go Great with a wide variety of dishes including:
this tastes just like the purchased mix. since i cook for two, any muffin that uses one egg to make six muffins is great. no need to try to divide an egg or store too many extra muffins.
this would be a great gift….place in a jar or ziploc bag with directions attached, put in a basket with a muffin tin, small wisk, wooden spoon and maybe a chili mix…..hmmmm, i might have to do this…..
we make baked corn often it requires a box of jiffy will try this next time
made this several times. i like it very much.
I’m definitely going to give this recipe a try! Not only does it look really delicious, but it also might be healthier than using store-bought mixes. That’s because you know exactly what goes into making them – no preservatives or added chemicals needed. Plus, homemade corn muffins just have a better taste in my opinion.
I think this recipe for Copycat Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix looks amazing! It’s so creative and interesting to make a version of a classic store-bought product. I can definitely relate to the convenience of using a boxed mix, but it’s nice having the option to control the ingredients and customize it exactly how you want. Plus, you get the satisfaction of making something homemade without having to spend too much time in the kitchen, which is great.
