Ingredients

• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1.5 cups frozen corn, thawed
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups milk
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
• 0.5 cups breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 0.25 cups parmesan cheese, grated

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch square casserole dish or similar-sized baking dish and set it aside.

Step 2

Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 3-4 minutes until just tender. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture is golden and smells slightly nutty.

Step 4

Slowly whisk in the milk and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 5-6 minutes.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, black pepper, and onion powder until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked broccoli, thawed corn, and cheese sauce. Stir until the vegetables are evenly coated.

Step 7

Transfer the mixture to the prepared casserole dish, spreading it into an even layer.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, olive oil, and grated parmesan cheese until evenly combined. Sprinkle this topping over the casserole.

Step 9

Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Step 10

Allow the dish to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Scalloped Corn Broccoli!
