Making Savory Jiffy Mix Cornbread with a Broccoli Twist is a breeze. Follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish or a similarly sized oven-safe skillet with cooking spray or oil.
2. Prepare Broccoli: If using fresh broccoli, steam or blanch the florets for approximately 3-4 minutes until slightly tender. Chop into small pieces.
3. Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the Jiffy corn muffin mix, broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, milk, egg, chopped onion (if using), garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well blended. Be careful not to over-mix.
4. Pour into Pan: Transfer the mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
5. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Cool: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving.
7. Slice and Serve: Cut into squares or wedges and serve warm.
These straightforward steps make this cornbread recipe easy to follow, even for novice cooks.
