Whole Grain Cornbread Mix

I will admit that that cute little box of Jiffy® cornbread mix at the store is inviting!  Take the box home, add some eggs and milk, and voila!  But, the truth is, you don’t really need Jiffy®, or any other company, to make you a cornbread mix.  You can just do it yourself with this Whole Grain Cornbread Mix, and then you can control the ingredients.  And it’s not any harder to make cornbread from a homemade mix than it is to make one from a box.

In fact, you can make several at once, assembly line style, and keep them around for when you’re in the mood for some good old country cornbread!
