Frequently-Asked Questions
Is Jiffy cornbread mix gluten free?
No, Jiffy cornbread mix is not gluten-free as it contains wheat. If you require gluten-free cornbread, you should look for a mix that is gluten-free or make your own from scratch.
What can I use instead of egg in Jiffy cornbread?
You can easily substitute one tablespoon of ground flaxseed combined with 3 tablespoons of water for each egg called for in Jiffy cornbread mixes. However, I also recommend adding 2 to 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil to create the best consistency.
