Corn Casserole deserves more attention!
I feel like other comforting Southern side dishes get so much praise (ahem…mac and cheese, potato salad and baked beans) when Corn Casserole is the absolute GOAT. It’s the happy marriage between cornbread and corn pudding (it’s softer than cornbread, but not as custard-like as corn pudding), and it goes well with anything (we even love it as a Thanksgiving side dish).
The best part about my recipe is we’re making Corn Casserole from scratch (rather than using a packaged cornbread mix like many people do). It’s just as easy and inexpensive, but tastes so much better and is better for you.
How to make Corn Casserole:
Combine: Mix together flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, oil, eggs, corn kernels, creamed corn, and sour cream. Gently fold dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Stir in any mix-ins, if desired.
Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8inch square baking pan (or similar size casserole dish). Spread batter into prepared baking dish and bake this easy corn casserole recipe for 45-60 minutes, just until no longer overly jiggly in the center.
Storage and Freezing Instructions:
To Store: Keep any leftover corn casserole covered in the fridge.
To Freeze: Let the baked corn casserole cool completely then cover well and freeze for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the fridge then let it rest at room temperature for an hour before rewarming at 325°F for 15 minutes, until warm.
