  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 14.75 oz. creamed corn
  • 15.25 oz. whole kernel sweet corn, drained
  • 8.5 oz. Jiffy corn muffin mix
  • 8 oz. sour cream
  • 1 stick butter (1/2 cup), melted
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the casserole.
  2. Mix ingredients: In a large bowl, combine creamed corn, drained whole kernel corn, Jiffy corn muffin mix, sour cream, and melted butter. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed.
  3. Prepare baking dish: Grease a 9×13 inch casserole dish or a 10-inch cast iron skillet generously to prevent sticking.
  4. Bake the casserole: Pour the mixture into your greased baking dish. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes.
  5. Add cheese topping: Remove the casserole from the oven, sprinkle shredded cheddar evenly over the top, and return it to the oven.
  6. Finish baking: Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the top starts to brown nicely.
  7. Rest before serving: Let the casserole stand for 5 minutes to set before serving.

Notes

  • You can prepare this casserole up to two days in advance and refrigerate before baking.
  • Make sure to drain the whole kernel corn well to avoid excess moisture.
  • For a slower cooking method, this recipe can be adapted for the Crock Pot: cook on high for 2-3 hours or low for 4 hours, adding cheese in the last 20 minutes.
  • Use a cast iron skillet if available for a rustic presentation and extra flavor.
  • Pair this savory casserole with your favorite main dishes like roasted meats or grilled vegetables.
