Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (15 ounce) can creamed corn
  • 1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 (8.5 ounce) package corn muffin mix (like Jiffy)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened and cubed
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the creamed corn, drained whole kernel corn, corn muffin mix, sour cream, cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, melted butter, eggs, and salt.
  3. Mix all ingredients together until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish.
  5. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the creamy corn bake rest for 10 minutes before serving.
  7. For a slow cooker variation, combine all ingredients and cook on low for 3 to 4 hours or on high for 1.5 to 2 hours.

Notes

  • For an extra cheesy topping, sprinkle 1/2 cup more cheddar cheese over the top during the last 10 minutes of baking.
  • You can substitute Monterey Jack cheese for cheddar if you prefer a milder flavor.
  • This casserole pairs well with roasted chicken or holiday ham.
