Extra Moist Jiffy Cornbread

Cornbread is one of those controversial foods.

People are steadfast in their beliefs on what they think cornbread should be. My mom is adamant it should NOT be sweet. I’ve met others who insist on putting whole kernel corn in theirs. Cast iron or baking dish? Soft or firm?

I’m a fan of almost every cornbread out there. I don’t stick to just one type and proclaim it superior. I’ve made cheesy, spicy, spoon bread, and honey. I like them all equally.

However, this recipe might be my new favorite. And it all starts with a box of Jiffy.

If you like your cornbread sweet, you’ll love this recipe. If you like your cornbread moist, you’ll love this recipe. If you like corn kernels in your cornbread, you’ll also love this recipe.

This cornbread is so moist it will crumble apart in you hands. It’s amazing.

There’s a reason why this cornbread turns out so incredible: it has a secret ingredient inside, mayonnaise! It makes this cornbread moist and flavorful.

Enjoy!
