Corn pudding is a classic comfort dish that brings a bit of sweetness to the dinner table, making it perfect for holiday gatherings or family meals. With a creamy, custard-like texture, this dish highlights the natural flavor of corn, creating a side that’s both satisfying and easy to make.
Ingredients
- 1 can (15 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 can (15 ounces) cream-style corn
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 box (8.5 ounces) cornbread mix (like Jiffy)
- 1/4 cup sugar (optional, for added sweetness)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for a cheesy variation)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or a similar-sized casserole dish.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole kernel corn, cream-style corn, sour cream, melted butter, and eggs. Stir well until evenly mixed.
- Add Cornbread Mix and Seasoning: Add the cornbread mix, sugar (if using), and salt. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. If adding cheese, fold it in at this step.
- Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread evenly, then bake for 45-55 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the corn pudding to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to cut into squares if desired.
Conclusion
Corn pudding pairs wonderfully with roasted meats, vegetables, and other holiday side dishes. If you prefer a savory twist, add chopped green onions or jalapeños for a bit of heat. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to three days and reheated in the oven or microwave. Enjoy this comforting, crowd-pleasing dish!
