- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1.5 cups fresh corn kernels (about 2 large ears)
- 0.5 cup green onions, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- 1 to taste nonstick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, buttermilk, and eggs until smooth and fully incorporated.
Step 4
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Fold in the fresh corn kernels, green onions, and shredded cheddar cheese (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
