Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 (15-ounce) can whole kernel corn (drained)
  • 1 (15-ounce) can creamed corn
  • 1 (8.5-ounce) box Jiffy corn muffin mix
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional)
  • 2-3 tablespoons chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Method
 

  1. First, preheat your oven to 350°F and grease an 8x8 or 9x9 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk the 2 large eggs, then stir in the melted butter and sour cream.
  3. Next, gently mix in the drained whole kernel corn and the can of creamed corn.
  4. Now, add the box of Jiffy mix and the sugar, and stir until just combined.
  5. Then, pour the batter into your greased baking dish and spread it out evenly.
  6. Finally, bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set. If you like, sprinkle some fresh parsley on top before serving.

Notes

  • Let the casserole cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
  • For extra flavor, you can add one cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Store any leftovers you have in a covered dish in the fridge.
  • This casserole is meant to be soft and pudding-like in the center.
  • Do not overmix the batter after you add the corn muffin mix.
  • This dish tastes great when you serve it warm from the oven.
