Creamed Corn Cornbread
This recipe takes our classic How to Make Jiffy Cornbread Better recipe to the next level. If you’re looking for an easy recipe that will impress at a family gathering or a church potluck, this is a great option!
Adding the cream style sweet corn makes it so much more moist. That creamy flavor really just melts in your mouth, but it still has that incredible golden brown crust on top.
I obviously added some butter to the top. Enjoying that bit of melting butter while you’re eating it will easily make this some of the best moist cornbread you’ve ever had. It really is a lovely treat that you won’t want to stop eating.
What Is The Difference Between Cornbread And Southern Cornbread?
Northern cornbread is made with fewer eggs, which gives it a more crumbly texture. It also isn’t noticeably sweet.
Southern cornbread is sweet and more cakelike in texture. This is a sweet cornbread with creamed corn and sour cream recipe, so it’s much more reminiscent of Southern cornbread recipes.
What Can You Add To Cornbread Mix?
Cornbread mix is one of those pantry ingredients that’s surprisingly versatile. There are tons of different flavors you can add in to make the cornbread pair perfectly with your dinner.
Some of my favorite mix-in combinations are: Jalapeno and Cheddar, Ground Sausage and Cheese, and Bacon and Green Onion.
Ingredients
For this recipe, you only need 7 ingredients. You’ll need eggs, vegetable oil, milk, honey (or creamed honey), canned cream style sweet corn, sour cream, and Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix.
How To Make Jiffy Cornbread With Creamed Corn
Start by whisking together the eggs and oil, then whisk in the milk and honey. Next, you’ll add in the canned cream style sweet corn and sour cream. (See the recipe card below for the full printable instructions.)

Mix the wet ingredients together, then gently mix in the Jiffy cornbread mix (make sure not to overmix it).
Pour the batter into a greased baking dish, then bake until it’s set. See the recipe card below for the full printable instructions, including ingredient amounts, cooking times, and helpful tips, etc.
What Can I Use In Place Of Milk For Jiffy Cornbread?
If you don’t have any milk on hand, you can substitute mayo for milk in cornbread. It’s an easy 1:1 swap that works super well!
What To Serve Cornbread With
My favorite thing to serve cornbread with is soups and stews. Some of my favorites that pair so well with this moist cornbread are Mulligan Beef Stew, chilis (like our Chili con Carne or our Cream Cheese Chicken Chili), Taco Soup, this super easy Instant Pot Tomato Soup, or this healthy and hearty Chicken Potato Soup.

Could this be used for muffins? If so how many would this recipe yield, at what temperature and cooking time?

Hi Elisabeth, I haven’t tried to make this creamed corn cornbread in a muffin tin, so I can’t say for sure. I’m sure it could be done though. If I were to try to make them into muffins I’d grease the muffin tin, fill it 3/4 full, and bake them at 400 F for 20 – 25 minutes, then check them for doneness. I hope that helps! If you try them this way, I’d love to hear how they turned out. -Alexa

With the baking muffins at 3/4 full, expect a yield of 16/17.
At 400° F, they only took about 16 mins for me, but I used a rack closer to the bottom.
It’s the best cornbread recipe I’ve run across yet.

Just ½the recipe should fill a muffin pan with the cups filled ¾ of the way!

Hi Shawn, I haven’t tried to make this Jiffy creamed corn cornbread in a muffin tin, so I don’t know for sure how many it would make or how it would turn out. I’m confident it could be done though. If I were to try to make creamed corn cornbread muffins I’d grease the muffin pan, fill each one 3/4 full, and bake them at 400F for 20-25 minutes, then I’d check them for doneness. Because of the moisture from the creamed corn, I do think it needs to bake at the higher temperature of 400F to actually cook all the way through without taking too long (I wouldn’t try it at 350F). I hope that helps! If you try them this way, I’d love to hear how they turned out. -Alexa

Cannot wait to make this cornbread recipe.
I used Greek yogurt because I didn’t have sour cream and made this into muffins. I cooked them on 400 degrees F, 20-22 minutes and they were delicious!

can I substitute the vegetable oil for olive oil?
Reply
Hi Melody, Since there’s a substantial amount of vegetable oil in this recipe, I’d only use light olive oil since it has a more neutral flavor. Any other neutral flavored oil (like grapeseed oil) would also work. Hope that helps! -Alexa

I use avocado oil. Love this recipe!

Could I use an iron skillet for this cornbread with creamed corn?

Hi Elizabeth, Yes, that should work. -Alexa

I do and it comes out grrrreeeaat!

Hi Stan, It would depend on the size baking dish you use. I haven’t tested using only half of the ingredients, so I can’t say for sure what would work. If you try it, please let me know what works for you! -Alexa

Hi – I made a 1/2 recipe in a small cast iron skillet. I checked at around the 20 minute mark and covered it with foil for another 15 minutes or so. It was fantastic! I have the full recipe baking right now in an 8×8. Again, I covered it at around the 30 mark because it was starting to brown. This recipe is a keeper!

Moist, rich and creamy, what’s not to love about this?

Thank for this Great, easy to follow recipe.
I made it for New Years Day. It went perfect with my 15 Bean Soup w/ham.
I made muffins and put a little cube of cream cheese in the middle before cooking…yummy!For the muffins Cox the pan with melted butter. Fill each up 1/3, them put a small cube of cream cheese in the middle. Then cover with more batter until it’s 3/4 full.
Bake at 4:00° 20-25 min. Watch the time, my oven is quirky.
This recipe was perfect for 12 (Square) Muffins.Reply
This was fantastic! I’ve used jiffy cornbread mix for most of my life. I will be making it this way from now on. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

I made these the other night to go with my chili and EVERYONE loved them!! They were so moist, sweet and flavorful! Thanks so much for the easy and amazing recipe!! See with mine I used the jiffy cornbread that has honey in it and also these ingredients.

Can a portion of this cornbread batter be used to top a tamale pie?
Reply
Hi Hope, I haven’t tried using this exact recipe for something like that, but I did do something similar in this recipe https://keytomylime.com/mexican-cornbread-casserole-recipe/ – it turned out great, so I think it would probably work! -Alexa

Yum
One of my favorites.
Halfway through; I mixed melted butter with Corn Flakes cereal to add some crunch on top. I loved it. My Mom used to add olives to the cornbread on top.Reply
I also use a pan, twice as large. So, I would add the cornflakes the last 6-8 minutes for an 8×8 pan.

Thank you! We tried this recipe, and it is amazing!!!

Do I double this recipe for use in 9×13 pan?
Reply
Hi Joan, I probably wouldn’t. I’ve heard from people that had a lot of success baking it in a 9×13 baking dish. It will be a bit thinner, so I’d check on it earlier to see if it’s fully cooked. Hope that helps! -Alexa
Reply
Absolutely! It is in the oven now, I think it will be awesome, but NO WAY is fitting in an 8×8….unless you want to clean your oven.
Reply
Easy and yummy. I cut the recipe in half and baked in a loaf tin. Took about 30 minutes to bake and brown the top. Did not add honey to the batter, but added after baking as always, along with butter.
Reply
I’m going to try this as I was reading comments to see about halving the recipe (to use up a partial can of creamed corn). Thanks for posting!

This recipe sounds amazing! Has anyone added cheddar and jalapenos to it?

Yep, added both and it’s delicious! This recipe is pretty easy to add things to your taste.

Can I use whole kernel corn instead of cream?

Hi Sondra, I haven’t tried that, but it would probably work. If you try it, please let me know how it goes! -Alexa

What if I don’t have sour cream? Will it make a big difference?
Reply
Hi Janice, The sour cream makes the cornbread more moist, which is why I love including it. If you don’t have it, I’d recommend using plain Greek yogurt instead. Hope that helps! -Alexa

Hi Rae, I haven’t tested this recipe with Krusteaz instead of Jiffy, so I can’t say for sure. If you try it, please let me know how it turns out! -Alexa

If pre making for the holidays, does this recipe need to be refrigerated after baking or how long can it sit on the counter?
Reply
Hi Sarah, Cornbread will typically last for 1-2 days at room temperature if it’s wrapped up. Cornbread will last longer than that if it’s stored in an airtight container in the fridge. Hope that helps and happy holidays! -Alexa
Reply
This was absolutely delicious. I followed the recipe exactly as stated.
It took a little longer to cook but oven temps vary so I believe that is to be expected. It kept well in Tupperware for five days until it was gone.Reply
I have frozen the baked cornbread and it’s still delicious!
Reply
Wonderful recipe!
I made this pretty close to the directions, I just used Avocado oil and plain nonfat Greek yogurt in place of vegetable oil and sour cream, but I added all the ingredients step by step according to instructions.I used both an 8×8 pan and a 6 muffin pan, otherwise there would have been too much for just the pan, but it is a great recipe, I made it to go along side my slow cooker turkey chili (roasted turkey breast, not ground turkey).

Would love to have your turkey chili recipe!!

I must be gluten free,so I bought a gluten free cornbread mix…I will let you know how it turns out🙏🏻

I made this with Simply Organic Gluten free Cornbread mix. It was a 16 oz box so I went a little lite on the milk…..this was the best GF cornbread that I’ve had!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️

Great recipe! Substituted whole milk Greek yogurt for sour cream and added about 1/4 cup of jarred jalapeños and added a pinch of smoked paprika. Absolutely delicious! This is a keeper- thank you so much
Reply
The best cornbread recipe I’ve found! I did read through some of the comments and decided to put it in a 9×9 inch baking pan. It turned out perfect after baking it for about 42 min.
Reply
I made the recipe as listed with the following changes- plain Greek yogurt for sour cream, and I added 2 finely diced jalapeños to the batter prior to baking.
This is the best corn bread I have ever made, I am saving this recipe, it is fantastic.
Reply
Delicious recipe. 5-Star!!!! No additions or substitutions, followed as is. Thanks for sharing with us!

Just made these as muffins! I filled them about halfway and baked them at 400 degrees for 15 minutes and they came out perfectly. Was able to make 27 total for our office Thanksgiving potluck. They are surprisingly delicious and moist! I recommend sprinkling a tiny bit of salt on top before they cool off.
Reply
Wow, this recipe turned out even better than I’d hoped. I cooked it as written in a 12″ round cast iron pan that I preheated in the oven at 400. It was done at 24 minutes, and it was just right. I’d recommend dropping 2 tbsp butter in the cast iron skillet and swirl it around before pouring the batter in. You won’t regret it.
Reply
Delicious! I used butter instead of oil as it’s what’s I had on hand. Like many others, I added jalapeños. Very moist and went well with beef stew. Definitely a keeper.
