    🥘 Ingredients

    Ingredients

    Jiffy Cornbread Mix: You will need two 8.5ox boxes.

    Buttermilk: Buttermilk makes the muffins taste better and softer, but regular milk (of any kind) will work too!

    Cheddar Cheese: You'll want to use a strong cheese, like sharp cheddar.

    Eggs: Helps the muffins to rise.

    Jalapeño: Two jalapenos will give you a light jalapeno taste. These muffins are not spicy at all.

    How to Make Jiffy Jalapeno Cornbread Muffins

    1. Prepare: Preheat oven to 400F. Spray 12 cups of a muffin tin with nonstick spray.

    2. Mix: Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl.

    3. Pour: Fill 12 muffin tins with the cornbread mixture.

    4. Bake: Bake for 17-20 min, or until golden brown

    🧀 Customizations

    A cup of jalapeno and cheddar cheese will give you a decent jalapeno-cheddar taste. Add a ¼ cup more cheese and another jalapeno to give the muffins a bolder flavor.

    Buttermilk does make the muffins taste better than regular Jiffy muffins, but regular milk (of any kind) will work too!

    🥡 How to Store Leftovers

    Place leftover cornbread in an airtight container or a large ziplock bag. Store at room temperature for about two days or in the fridge for a week.

    👩‍🍳 Tips

    I highly suggest serving these with honey butter! The sweetness of the honey combined with savory cornbread muffins is so good. I know they sometimes sell honey butter at the store. Land O Lakes makes some.

      Did you seed your jalapeños first or leave in?

        Hi Amy! I didn't include the seeds when making the muffins, and they had a mild spice. If you want these really spicey, include the seeds from one or two of the jalapenos.

      My wife makes cowboy candy with jalapenos and I use that instead of regular jalapenos. It added a sweetness that was unbelievable. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
