Cornmeal Cornbread Mix


I found this recipe on recipe gold mine (recipegoldmine.com) after a request from another zaar member for a cornbread mix similar to jiffy brand. This is a do-ahead mix that can make corn muffins, cornmeal biscuits, and cornbread with a few additions. The mix will last for 2-6 months, tightly covered (tupperware/ziploc bag) in the fridge.
