Jiffy Cornbread

I was sat in the American Diner at Butlins last year. It was one of the restaurants at the resort and I was excited for some American food.

As a Brit and also having amazing aunts that emigrated to the US many years ago, I have a real soft spot for American food and the more I can try and sample the better.

I was about to order, and then just like a blow to the head, the waitress said, “no cornbread”. I desperately wanted to try cornbread and there again, there was none.

I was absolutely gutted and that was like the 3^rd time we had been to an American diner now and they didn’t have cornbread on the menu.

I complained to an American friend of mine that I wanted to try cornbread before making my own and he had the idea of buying jiffy cornbread, trying it in the air fryer, and then at a later date making my own.

Well, I took him at his word, bought some jiffy cornbread mix and got to work trying it in the air fryer. I’m now totally in love with cornbread and cooking it in the air fryer.

How Long To Cook Jiffy Cornbread?

The jiffy cornbread cook time in the air fryer is JUST 15 minutes. This ensures that the cornbread is perfectly cooked in the centre and not just on top.

If you have a lot of cornbread batter than I also recommend that you leave it to sit in the air fryer basket when its finished for 10 minutes as this will allow it to carry on cooking slowly and finish the centre.
