Ingredients

  

• 2 boxes of Jiffy corn muffin mix
• 1 ¼ cup buttermilk
• 3 eggs
• 4 tbsp sugar
• 1 stick of butter for greasing the cast iron skillet
• 2 tbsp butter for the glaze
• 2 tbsp honey for the glaze

Instructions

 

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
• In a mixing bowl, combine the Jiffy corn muffin mix, buttermilk, eggs, and sugar. Stir until all the ingredients are well incorporated and the batter is smooth.
• Take your cast iron skillet and place the stick of butter in it. Put the skillet in the preheated oven for a few minutes until the butter melts completely.
• Once the butter has melted, carefully remove the skillet from the oven and tilt it to ensure the melted butter coats the entire surface of the skillet.
• Pour the prepared cornbread batter into the greased cast iron skillet. Make sure the batter is evenly distributed.
• Place the skillet back into the oven and bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until the cornbread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• While the cornbread is baking, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Once melted, add the honey and stir until well combined. Remove from heat.
• When the cornbread is done baking, carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
• Drizzle the butter and honey glaze over the warm cornbread, ensuring it covers the top evenly.
• Allow the cornbread to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy the irresistible combination of flavors and textures in each bite!
