Boston Market Style Cornbread- This cornbread recipe is a Boston Market copycat. It tastes more like cake than cornbread, but because it’s called cornbread you can get away with eating cake with dinner!
Boston Market Style Cornbread Recipe
This Boston Market Cornbread copycat is a recipe I printed off the internet many years ago. Probably around the time I discovered you could print recipes off the internet. Boy was that a great discovery! I must have printed a gazillion of them. I continuously weed out my recipe collection (or I would drown in them) and this is one of the few surviving recipes from that time period (must have been the mid 90s).
I absolutely love Boston Market’s cornbread.
And why do I love it so much? Because it’s not really cornbread. It’s cake passed off as cornbread.
Who doesn’t like cake that can be eaten with a meal instead of after?
These corn muffins are super sweet, buttery, and oh so delicious! They have more similar in consistency to cake than cornbread. I love them with some super spicy Five Alarm Chili.
5 Ingredients
This recipe only has 5 ingredients (plus water) so it is super easy and quick to make. It makes a huge batch, but you can freeze half of them or cut the recipe in half.
- 2 boxes Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
- 1 box butter flavored cake mix (I use Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines). If you can’t find butter-flavored, just use yellow cake mix.
- Eggs
- Milk
- Butter
Recommended Equipment
- This recipe makes a large amount of batter. You will need 2 12-cup muffin tins or you can bake them in batches. They can also be baked in mini loaf pans.
If you like really sweet cornbread, you will love this recipe 🙂
