Are corn muffins and corn bread the same thing? Recipe I have calls for corn muffin mix prepared according....

to package directions. I'm wanting to make some corn dogs in the GT Xpress and the GT Xpress recipe calls for 1 pouch 6.4 to 6.5 ounces or one small box (7 to 8.5 ounces) of corn muffin mix and 3 hot dogs whole or cut into pieces. I am supposed to mix the corn muffin mix according to package directions and use that as the batter for the corn dogs. At home I have a canister of Yellow Corn Meal and on the back of the canister it has a recipe for making corn bread. I do have all the ingredients at home for making the corn bread can I just use that recipe instead of the prepared corn muffin mix (which I don't have on hand). Would the prepared corn bread batter be the exact same thing as me going to the store and buying a box of corn muffin mix and preparing according to package directions like the GT Express recipe calls for?? Anyone know?Are corn muffins and corn bread the same thing? Recipe I have calls for corn muffin mix prepared according....
Back home, corn bread was always made from scratch with corn meal. I think you could probably use either one as long as you don't get it too runny to start. Corn muffin mix is usually a little sweeter so you have to decide if you want the dogs to have a sweeter breading on it.Are corn muffins and corn bread the same thing?

Yes, of course try it! It's good. Also, try using your corn meal instead of flour for pancakes... some may call it corn cakes. Also very delicious sweet or cheesy with green onions or bacon or........ use your imagination!
Corn muffin and cornbread batter is pretty much interchangeable. You should be able to use the recipe with no problem.
The two are the same, as the only difference is the shape of the pan you bake it in (muffin pan, cast-iron skillet, cake pan, etc.)
Yes, make it from scratch. However...the best corn bread ever is the cheapo Jiffy mix. Dang, ya cant' beat it.
The difference between cornbread and corn muffin is sugar in the batter. Cornbread does not, under any circumstances, have sugar, a corn muffin does. Doesn't matter what kind of pan it's cooked in - once it has sugar in it, it's a corn muffin.





It all depends on your taste. If you want to use corn muffin mix - you can use Jiffy Mix - usually less than $1.00. Personally - in my house - we don't care for sugar in our cornbread.
