Ultimate Cornbread Stuffing Recipe

  • 2 (8.5 ounce) packages corn muffin mix
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 strips bacon, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a small square baking dish or spray it with cooking spray.
  2. Mix together the muffin mix, cream, eggs, sugar, oil, vanilla, and poppy seeds to make a batter.
  3. Bake in preheated oven until golden brown and the top springs back when pressed lightly, 15 to 20 minutes. Allow to cool completely; cut into small squares and transfer to a bowl.
  4. Reduce oven heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  5. Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned. Add the peppers and onions to the skillet; cook and stir until the vegetables are tender. Remove from heat and add to bowl with cornbread squares; season with marjoram, pour in the chicken broth; mix. Spoon mixture into the prepared baking dish; cover with aluminum foil.
  6. Bake in preheated oven until heated through, about 30 minutes.
