Jiffy Corn Casserole is a must make for every holiday dinner, but it’s simple enough to make for any night of the week. A mix of soft cornbread and crisp sweet corn makes for a perfect side dish!
You know how everyone has that one dish they make that people just go crazy over?
Well, this corn casserole with Jiffy mix is one of those recipes for me. Everyone raves about it.
We regularly make it for holiday dinners, alongside our crockpot spiral ham, but it’s just as fabulous on a busy weeknight next to some crock pot ribs or our Instant Pot Whole Chicken.
This is one of those easy recipes that you stir together in one bowl with minimal prep. The box of Jiffy mix does all the work and you just sit back and enjoy the creamy, delicious goodness.
Jiffy Cornbread Casserole Ingredients:
Jiffy Mix – This is just a cornbread mix that comes in a small box, and it is key to this corn casserole with Jiffy mix recipe.
Canned Corn
Creamed Corn – This isn’t something we normally eat a lot of, but Jiffy cornbread with creamed corn just works! Have a little faith, you’ll love this creamed corn casserole!
Eggs – They’ll help make the corn casserole light and fluffy and will enhance the richness of the flavors!
Sour cream – It’ll help keep this corn casserole recipe from drying out.
Butter
Cayenne Pepper – We use just enough to help balance the sweetness. This dish is not spicy at all.
Salt & Pepper
Optional – A lot of cornbread casseroles with Jiffy include shredded cheddar cheese. We don’t usually add it, but you totally could! It’s an optional choice.

How to tell if the casserole is done:
The center should be just set. If you overbake this, it will get a bit dryer and more stiff. We like our cornbread casserole nice and moist, so as soon as the center is set, we pull it out. If you use a tester in the middle, like a toothpick, it should come out mostly clean.

I have made this before and love it. Think I will add a 1/4 C of drained pimento to it next time and maybe some chopped green pepper for color.
