Ingredients

  • 2 packages jiffy corn muffin mix
  • 4 beaten eggs
  • 3/4 cup melted butter
  • 12 ounces thawed frozen corn
  • 1 medium finely diced onion
  • 1 cup small curd cottage cheese
  • 1 pinch of sugar

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking once the batter is prepared.

Step 2: Mix the Batter

In a large bowl, combine the following ingredients: 2 boxes of Jiffy corn muffin mix, 4 beaten eggs, 3/4 cup of melted butter, 1 (12 ounce) package of thawed frozen corn, 1 finely diced medium onion, 1 cup of small curd cottage cheese, and a pinch of sugar.

Mix everything well until a thick batter forms.

The consistency will be thicker than usual for cornbread.

Step 3: Prepare the Casserole Dish

Butter a 9″ x 13″ casserole dish thoroughly to prevent the cornbread from sticking.

Pour the mixed batter into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 4: Bake the Cornbread

Bake the cornbread in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top turns golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

This indicates that the cornbread is fully cooked.

Step 5: Cool and Serve

Once baked, remove the cornbread from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes.

This cooling time helps to enhance the flavor and makes it easier to cut and serve.

Optional Variations

For a twist on the basic recipe, consider adding any of the following to the batter before baking:

  • 1 can of chopped green chiles
  • 1 cup of cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup of pepperjack cheese
  • 1/2 cup of chopped fresh cilantro

These additions can introduce new flavors and bring a unique touch to your cornbread.
