lacechenault's Full Review: Jiffy Blueberry Muffin Mix
First off – has Jiffy ever changed their box? Seriously it looks like the picture of the blueberries was taken in the 60’s, and I remember that same box form when I was very little. Maybe they just worry that at this point if they change the box; people won’t recognize it or think the contents have changed…who knows.
I like many before me – grew up on Jiffy Blueberry Muffins. I can still remember waking up on the weekends to the smell of blueberries and jumping right out of bed so excited. Seriously – my mother made these things almost every single weekend. What is better than scented candles to makes your home smell good? Jiffy blueberry muffins!
Not only do they smell wonderful they taste good too – they are best when eaten soon after they come out the oven – warm is best for these. However if you want one for a nice snack the next day – store it in an airtight container – outside of the fridge – and when it’s time to eat it – throw a paper towel over it and put it in the microwave for 20 seconds – almost like new.
The mix does seem cheap – the blueberries are dried up little balls, and the rest is just powder. Don’t expect them to be just like real fresh blueberries – because well it is form a box and not refrigerated. But still those little powdery dried up blue balls turn into great tasting moist yumminess once baked up.
Not a baker? Doesn’t matter…Jiffy blueberry muffins are very easy to make – very hard to mess up. For some of us, this is a close as we will get to Martha Stewart-ness. One box requires one egg, milk, and spray on pam. Though one box only makes 6 muffins, so you’ll probably want to make two boxes at a time to fill out the muffin pan. In about 10 minutes – they’re done!
So why do you need pam? Well because they will stick – so it’s either pam or cupcake papers. And you’ll want to make sure to get the pam all over the insides of the pan – if I’ve ever “messed” these up it was by not using enough pam – and then chunks of the muffin stick to it – and well the muffin still taste good but they aren’t as “pretty”.
Cheap Goodness - One of the best things about Jiffy blueberry muffin mix is that it is so cheap – about 50 cents a box ($1.00 for a dozen- two boxes) – and it can be found at any grocery store in the baking isle. With a price like that how could you not at least give it a try?
We always have two boxes of jiffy blueberry muffin mix in our home – at all times!! Because I know at some point I will get the craving for it, and I love that it is always here for me – and full of childhood memories. I just hope Jiffy never, ever, ever changes their recipe – and I don’t think they would – they should know better. I plan on making these blueberry muffins a part of my sons childhood memories as well – I just can’t wait until he is old enough to try them out!
