Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cups sweet corn kernels, drained (or fresh/frozen, thawed)
- 15 ounces cream-style corn
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 8.5 ounces jiffy-style cornbread mix
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons optional chopped chives or parsley (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the 4 tablespoons of butter in the microwave, or melt it gently on the stovetop.
Step 3
Add the sweet corn kernels, cream-style corn, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, cornbread mix, eggs, sugar, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the melted butter.
Step 4
Mix all ingredients together until thoroughly combined and you have a thick batter-like mixture.
Step 5
Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out with a spatula to ensure it's smooth on top.
Step 6
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the casserole is golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
Step 7
Let the casserole cool slightly for about 5 minutes to set. Garnish with chopped chives or parsley, if desired.
Step 8
Cut into squares or scoop out portions to serve warm. Enjoy!
