Ohhh yes 🌽🧈 Corn Casserole—sweet, creamy, cheesy, and perfectly comforting. This is a classic side dish for holidays, weeknight dinners, or any time you want that cozy, buttery goodness.
🌽 Cheesy Corn Casserole
Ingredients (serves 6–8)
- 1 can (15 oz) whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 can (15 oz) creamed corn
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or a mix of cheddar and Monterey Jack)
- 1 box (8.5 oz) Jiffy corn muffin mix (or similar)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat oven
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2️⃣ Mix ingredients
- In a large bowl, combine whole kernel corn, creamed corn, sour cream, melted butter, cheese, corn muffin mix, eggs, salt, and pepper.
- Stir until evenly combined.
3️⃣ Bake
- Pour mixture into prepared baking dish.
- Bake 45–50 minutes, or until golden brown and set in the center.
4️⃣ Serve
- Let cool 5–10 minutes before serving.
- Optional: top with extra shredded cheese or chopped chives for garnish.
Pro Tips
- Cheese: sharp cheddar adds bold flavor; creamy cheeses like Monterey Jack make it gooier.
- Sweet vs. savory: for a sweeter casserole, use more creamed corn and a touch of sugar.
- Make ahead: prepare mixture the night before and bake when ready.
- Add-ins: chopped bell peppers, jalapeños, or bacon bits can add extra flavor and texture.
I can also give a “loaded, ultra-creamy corn casserole” version with cream cheese, mozzarella, and a buttery crumb topping—basically the ultimate indulgent comfort food 😏.
