I can't believe this isn't already posted. This is a super easy way to make cornbread fast. Keep this in your pantry and all you will need to add is some water, oil and an egg for cornbread. The recipe is from Make-A-Mix Cookery. I usually use 1/2 whole wheat flour and 1/2 all-purpose flour.

Tips:
- Choose the right cornbread mix: Not all cornbread mixes are created equal. For the best results, choose a mix that is made with stone-ground cornmeal and has a fine texture.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cornbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cornbread in a hot oven: A hot oven will help the cornbread to rise and brown properly. Preheat the oven to the temperature specified on the package of cornbread mix.
- Let the cornbread cool completely before cutting it: This will help to prevent the cornbread from crumbling.
- Serve the cornbread warm or at room temperature: Cornbread is best served warm or at room temperature. If you are serving it cold, you can warm it up in the microwave or oven.
- Add your favorite mix-ins: Cornbread is a versatile food that can be customized to your liking. Try adding cheese, bacon, jalapeños, or other ingredients to the batter.
