The standard cornbread mix used in this recipe is the Jiffy brand. You could use another brand as long as the mix can bake two 8" pans worth of cornbread.
More helpful tips for you.
- The cornbread muffin mix is used to bake cornbread that is the base of this recipe. You can use already baked cornbread to skip this step if needed.
- This recipe works great if you bake the cornbread ahead of time to allow it to dry out so that it can keep a bit of structure when combined with the other ingredients.
- Another option is to bake the cornbread, crumble it up, and then dry it out in your oven, as it cools from baking ,on a baking sheet for a few minutes.
- Take this dish up a notch by adding cooked and crumbled sausage (like breakfast sausage) or stirring in some dried fruit (raisins or cranberries?).
- When combining your ingredients together, gently fold the ingredients until just combined to avoid making a (gluten) tough stuffing. .
- Your stuffing is done baking when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
