Can I use a milk substitute in “JIFFY” Mix recipes?
“JIFFY” mixes can also be prepared with water or plant-based milk alternatives like soy, almond or coconut milk. Pineapple or orange juice may be substituted for flavor variation in the corn and fruit muffins. Feel free to experiment with other options and let us know if you find something else that works well. Substitutions may alter texture and flavor.
Are there any diabetic recipes for “JIFFY” mixes?
We are aware that some people, who are on special diets, have modified our existing recipes to meet their needs. However, due to the variable nature of each individual’s diabetic diet, we do not develop diabetic recipes.
Can I use egg substitute in place of an egg in “JIFFY” Mix recipes?
Although nothing gives quite the same results as an egg, “JIFFY” mixes are compatible with the use of egg substitutes. At this time, there is no universal replacement for eggs, which will work well in every recipe. Below is a list of some of the more commonly used egg substitutions. Feel free to experiment with other options and let us know if you find something else that works well.
Common Egg Substitutions:
- Packaged egg substitutes
- 3 Tbsp. aquafaba (canned chickpea liquid)
- Unsweetened applesauce
- 1/4 cup in 7 oz Fruit Muffin Mix
- 1/3 cup in 8.5 oz Corn Muffin Mix
- Flax Egg: 2 tsp. ground flax seed and 3 Tbsp. warm water (let sit 15 minutes before using)
Substitutions may alter texture and flavor.
NOTE: Many commercially available egg replacements are still derived from eggs, and thus are not suitable for people with egg allergies. Be sure to check the list of ingredients before purchasing.

What is the difference between your regular Corn Muffin and Vegetarian Corn Muffin mixes?
The only difference between our original 1950 recipe “JIFFY” Corn Muffin Mix and our new “JIFFY” Vegetarian Corn Muffin Mix is the shortening. The new vegetarian version is made using vegetable shortening. Otherwise, the mixes are the same. The flavor and texture of our new Vegetarian Muffin Mix remains true to America’s Favorite “JIFFY” Corn Muffins. Click here for a list of our Vegetarian-friendly recipes.
Is there a chance of cross contamination with tree nuts or peanuts?
We do not use any peanuts or tree nuts in any of the products manufactured in our facility. No outside food is allowed in production areas.
What are the little black specks occasionally found in my “JIFFY” Corn Muffin Mix?
The black specks are simply naturally dark pieces of the pericarp (skin) of the corn, where the tip of the kernel attaches to the cob. The color of the specks will vary by crop and year. They are the same as those commonly seen in hard taco shells, corn or tortilla chips, cornmeal, and natural whole corn products.
Do you manufacture gluten-free “JIFFY” mixes?
No. Our current facility does not support the manufacture of gluten-free mixes.
How many different “JIFFY” Mix varieties do you manufacture?
We have fourteen different retail baking mixes.

Is it ok to use “JIFFY” mixes that are beyond the “Best If Used by” date?
For best results, we recommend using all “JIFFY” mixes by the “Best If Used By” date. Beyond this date, dependent upon local weather and storage conditions, the quality of the end product may be affected.
