❤️ Why you'll love it

  • This easy recipe requires just one bowl and a baking dish.
  • By elevating a basic box of Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix, you make a comfort-food classic in 5 quick minutes of prep.
  • The buttermilk tenderizes and the creamed corn adds flavor to create a deliciously soft, moist cornbread.

Corn pudding and corn casserole step aside—this Creamed Corn Cornbread recipe will be your new favorite side dish. It's perfect for every occasion, from church potlucks and picnics to holiday meals around your dinner table.

🧾 Ingredients

This is an overview of the ingredients. You'll find the full measurements and instructions in the green recipe card (printable) at the bottom of the page.

  1. Mix together the eggs, buttermilk, butter, and honey.
  2. Add the Jiffy cornbread mix, creamed corn, and salt to the buttermilk mixture.
  3. Whisk all the ingredients until combined.
  4. Bake in a greased dish.

🥫 Storage

Creamed corn cornbread is pretty hearty and you'll want leftovers (maybe even for breakfast—our little secret!).

Wrapped in plastic wrap or placed in an airtight container the cornbread will last for two days at room temperature or one week in the refrigerator.

You can tightly cover leftovers right in the baking dish with plastic wrap. Otherwise, transfer the leftover pieces of cornbread to an airtight container, like a zip-top bag.

To freeze, wrap individual squares of the cornbread in plastic wrap, and then put the wrapped slices into a plastic, zip-top freezer bag. Store in the freezer for up to three months.

📖 Variations

  • Add some of your family's favorite mix-ins baking. Try:
    • Chopped jalapenos or a can of green chilies
    • Cheddar cheese
    • Bacon bits
    • Green onions
    • Chipotle powder
  • If you don't have honey, use 3 tablespoon of brown sugar in its place.
  • Brush the top with this honey butter when it comes out of the oven.

💭 Things to know

Expert Tip: When testing the cornbread for doneness, a few moist crumbs of cornbread on the toothpick are fine. That means it's finished baking. However, look for any wet batter as your sign to let it bake longer.

  • Don't overmix your batter or the cornbread may become tough. Just whisk the ingredients until everything comes together evenly.
  • Using room-temperature ingredients is essential for the batter mixing evenly—if the milk and eggs are too cold, they can curdle when mixed! Always bring your ingredients out of the refrigerator to warm up before starting to bake.
  • I know it's tempting to peek in the oven, especially when that sweet cornbread aroma begins wafting through the kitchen. However, keep the oven door closed as much as possible to ensure even baking.

👩‍🍳 FAQs

I don't have buttermilk! Can I substitute something else in its place?

Yep! The same measurement of sour cream or yogurt works in a pinch.

You can also make your own buttermilk with regular milk and lemon juice or vinegar. Measure out one cup of milk, then remove a tablespoon of it. Add to the scant cup of milk a tablespoon of the juice or vinegar. Stir to combine and let sit for ten minutes.

How large is a 2-quart baking dish?

A 2-quart baking dish typically measures 8"x8" (square) or 9" (oblong/rectangular.) Usually, the volume is noted on the bottom of a dish.

If you're unsure about the exact size of your dish, just watch the cornbread carefully as it bakes. Test the center with a toothpick when the side and top crusts are a nice golden brown.

Can I use a metal 7"x11" or 9"x13" pan instead of a baking dish?

You can, technically, but I don't recommend it. Your cornbread will spread out more so the slices won't have much height to them.

However, if you must use one of these pans, increase the baking temperature by 25° and start checking the center with a toothpick earlier than suggested.

      Hy Marye,
      I live in New Zealand and can't find Jiffy mix here. Can you tell me with what can I change it?
      Thankyou
