Ingredients

• 3 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels
• 1 15-ounce can cream-style corn
• 1 cup sour cream
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1.5 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup crushed butter crackers (like Ritz)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray or butter.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, cream-style corn, sour cream, and 1/2 cup of melted butter. Stir well to combine.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until lightly beaten, then add to the corn mixture and mix thoroughly.

Step 4

In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually stir this dry mixture into the wet corn mixture until just combined.

Step 5

Fold 1 cup of the shredded sharp cheddar cheese into the batter, reserving 1/2 cup for topping.

Step 6

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese over the top.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the crushed butter crackers with 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Evenly scatter this mixture over the cheese layer.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

Step 10

Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
