Ingredients

1 box Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
1/2 tbsp sugar optional
1 large egg
1/3 cup milk
2 tbsp butter melted
Olive Oil Spray or avocado oil spray for seasoning the pan

Instructions

Whisk the milk, eggs, sweetener, and melted butter together in a large mixing bowl.
Fold in the jiffy cornbread mix and gently mix to incorporate.
Spray your air fryer baking pan accessory (or an oven safe round dish that fits your air fryer) with oil.
Add the jiffy cornbread batter to the pan.
Air fry at 330 degrees for 18-20 minutes, or until you poke the center of the cornbread with a toothpick & it comes out clean.

Notes

If using a home-made mix: you can follow the instructions for that recipe for how to make the batter.
Reheat leftover cornbread in the microwave: just cover it with a damp paper towel to preserve moisture as it warms

Use day-old cornbread in recipes like my Southern jiffy cornbread stuffing or any of these cornbread dressing recipes.

Store leftover cornbread in an airtight container for up to 4 days. You can also add it to a freezer bag and freezer it for up to 3 months.
