We love cornbread and Air Fryer Jiffy cornbread is amazing. It’s so simple and definitely a game changer. Within minutes you can have quick and easy cornbread in the air fryer from the very popular box of Jiffy corn muffin mix
Can You Make Jiffy Cornbread in Air Fryer?
Yes, you can! It’s one of the most simple and easy ways to make cornbread for dinner, breakfast, Thanksgiving, Holidays or anytime you’re craving cornbread. Traditionally it’s made in the oven, but after several air frying tests we’re in love with this method more than the conventional oven. It’s quick, simple and doesn’t take lots of pre-heating time. We used the Jiffy corn muffin mix box for this cornbread recipe.

Tips on How To Make Air Fryer Jiffy Corn bread
- Use the same accessory “bucket” pan that we did. This is the pan. It’s thin, light and deep enough to hold the volume of one jiffy cornbread box mix. We’ve tested several pans that fit the air fryer, but the timing that we have is based on this “bucket” pan.
- Don’t overmix the cornbread mix or it will be tough.
- Using a rubber or silicone spatula is best because you can scrape the sides of the bowl during mixing. This will give you the best mix and won’t leave important ingredients on the sides of the bowl during mixing.
- The box says to use milk but you can use buttermilk or heavy cream. This will make the cornbread a little more moist.
- Make sure to oil the sides of the baking pan so the cornbread doesn’t stick.
- Some air fryer models vary with how hot they cook. So if you use a toothpick to check the cornbread and it still comes out a little wet, the cover the cornbread with foil. Continue cooking for a few minutes to get the cornbread cooked all the way through. The foil keeps the cornbread from drying out and burning on the top.
What to Serve with Cornbread?
Air frying cornbread for Holidays, Thanksgiving or Christmas is fantastic. You can serve it with some warm honey or butter on the side. Have it for breakfast with eggs or serve it with a steak for dinner. It’s such a great side dish or quick bread made in the air fryer for anytime of day. We love it with Turkey for thanksgiving and always with creamy gravy on top!
Air Fryer Jiffy Cornbread “Corn Muffin Mix”
Yield: 6 servings
Prep Time: 5 minutes mins
Cook Time: 22 minutes mins
Total Time: 27 minutes mins
This popular brand of cornbread is a quick and easy way to enjoy a small batch in the air fryer. It’s a great tasting cornbread that’s both economical and perfect for small servings.This timing is for a 6 qt. air fryer that fits the 7” cake bucket or 8” shallow pizza pan from air fryer accessory kits. The more shallow the pan, the better it will cook all the way through. If your pan is too narrow and deep, then the outside of the cornbread might be too burnt while the middle is still raw.

Ingredients
- 8.5 oz. Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup milk
- oil spray
Equipment
Instructions
Combine the corn muffin mix, egg and milk. Mix just enough so that there are no dry spots. Do not over-mix.
Lightly coat your baking pan with oil spray and fill with the batter.
Air Fry at 320°F at 16-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center. If after 22 minutes the toothpick isn’t fully clean yet but the edges of the cornbread are crisp, then turn off the heat and leave corn bread in the air fryer for about 10 minutes to allow the residual heat to continue cooking the cornbread.
Allow to cool in the pan. It will release from the sides as it cools, making it easier to cut.
If your air fryer is preheated or if you are cooking multiple batches, you may need to reduce timing by a few minutes (unless preheating is called for in the recipe).

How about corn muffins for those of us with smaller capacity air fryers?

Diane — Reply
Hi Barbara, you can certainly make corn muffins from these. If you divide the batter of one box into 6 equal muffin cups and cook at 325F for about 7-8 minutes this should work. If you pierce a toothpick in the muffins and it’s still not cooked in the center, then cook for another 1 minute and keep them in the air fryer to continue cooking in the residual heat.

What a great idea! I’m going to try this with silicone muffin cups. My Dad’s a diabetic. So I have a recipe I found on the Spenda website that’s better for him. Muffins make sure that I’m portioning correctly for him.
I’m so happy I found this website!

I really loved this idea. The first batch I made came out perfect so I’m not making any changes whatsoever to the recipe. I’m making them again in a few weeks for Thanksgiving.

Just tried this recipe on my Cuisinart Airfryer Toaster Oven. Prepare mix as you instructed and poured in a 7” Fat Daddio pan. Set the temp to 325° and placed pan on wire rack at the lower level for 15 min. Turned out perfect!
Thanks for your tips.
