A creamy, cheesy, and slightly sweet Southern-style corn casserole that’s easy to make and perfect as a comforting side dish for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (15.25 oz) cream-style corn
  • 1 can (15.25 oz) whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 box (8.5 oz) Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 oz sour cream
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. Drain the whole kernel corn in a colander for about 30 seconds to remove excess liquid.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix, granulated sugar, salt, and black pepper. Whisk briefly to blend dry ingredients evenly.
  4. Add the cream-style corn, drained whole kernel corn, sour cream, and melted butter to the dry mix. Stir gently with a spatula to combine.
  5. Crack the eggs into a small bowl and beat lightly with a fork or whisk until yolks and whites are just blended. Fold the eggs into the corn mixture until thick but moist.
  6. Fold in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top gently with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes until the top turns golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
  9. Let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to avoid a dense casserole. Use room temperature eggs for even baking. Drain whole kernel corn well to prevent sogginess. Tent with foil if the top browns too fast. Variations include adding jalapeños for heat or using almond flour for gluten-free. Let casserole rest 10 minutes before slicing.
