Kansas City Cornbread

This is a sweet corn bread recipe that is very similar to one that several area restaurants serve here, hence the name. SO good...almost like cake. When it starts to get cool here, I start to crave this and have to make chili or soup to accompany it. I found this recipe several years ago on the internet and do not remember who originally posted it, but thank you if you recognize it! I have also made it into muffins and the results are just as great!

SERVES 4 -6 , 1 8x8 pan (change servings and units)

  • 1 (8 1/2 ounce) box Jiffy cornbread mix

  • 1 (9 ounce) box jiffy yellow cake mix
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup oil

Directions

  1. 1
    Mix all ingredients.
  2. 2
    Pour batter into greased and floured 8x8 pan.
  3. 3
    Bake at 400°F for 5 minutes, then lower oven to 350°F and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until cake tester comes out clean and top is lightly browned.

It was good but mine was crumbly so hard to get out of pan until cooled. Maybe because I used a two year old corn muffin mix- I don't know

    It seems like sometimes you can read a recipe and tell by the ingredients that this will be a GOOD ONE. I thought that when I read it and was right! Really Really Good. The cake seemed to soften and gently sweeten the corn bread-yet it kept the corn bread flavor. The odd thing is I don't normally like the flavor of yellow cake mix but this really tasted like corn bread. Thanks so much for sharing. I made it last night and again this morning...I have 4 kiddos and they loved it too! NOTE: If you don't eat lard or meat products I wanted to mention that Jiffy does have lard in it. I have subbed other cornbread mix and yellow cake mix (using identical measurements) and it came out really good that way too!

    I have made this recipe several times. I make muffins instead of an 8 x 8 pan. This recipe freezes well.

    This is the best cornbread I have ever had and the only one I will make now! I have made it many times and the only problem I have is that the center takes forever to bake. Tonight I made it in a 9x13 pan and it came out PERFECT!
