Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh corn kernels
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 3 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Lightly grease four 6-ounce ramekins or custard cups with butter and set them aside.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the fresh corn kernels and sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, eggs, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, salt, and ground black pepper until smooth.

Step 5

Add the sautéed corn kernels to the mixture and stir to combine evenly.

Step 6

Divide the mixture equally among the prepared ramekins.

Step 7

Place the ramekins in a deep baking dish. Pour hot water into the baking dish until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins (this is called a water bath, which ensures even cooking).

Step 8

Carefully transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the puddings are set in the center and lightly golden on top.

Step 9

Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your creamy Fresh Corn Puddings!
