Description:
This Corn Casserole is rich, creamy, and full of corn flavor with just the right amount of sweetness. Made with simple ingredients, this recipe is a fantastic side dish for Thanksgiving, family gatherings, or any cozy meal.
Ingredients (Quantities):
- Whole kernel corn: 1 can (15 oz), drained
- Cream-style corn: 1 can (15 oz)
- Sour cream: 1 cup
- Melted butter: ½ cup (1 stick)
- Jiffy corn muffin mix: 1 box (8.5 oz)
- Egg: 1 large
- Shredded cheddar cheese: 1 cup (optional, for added richness)
Optional Ingredients:
- Chopped green chilies: ¼ cup (for a hint of spice)
- Diced jalapeños: 1 tablespoon (if you prefer a spicy kick)
- Fresh parsley or chives: for garnish
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Mix Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained whole kernel corn, cream-style corn, sour cream, melted butter, Jiffy corn muffin mix, and egg. Stir well until everything is thoroughly combined.
3. Add Cheese (Optional):
- If using, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese for extra creaminess.
4. Bake the Casserole:
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
5. Serve:
- Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives, if desired.
Tips for Success:
- Don’t overmix: Stir until just combined for a tender texture.
- Let it rest before serving: This allows the casserole to set slightly for easier slicing.
Recommendations:
- Serve warm as a side dish for roast chicken, turkey, or ham.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
