Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cans (15 oz each) whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 can (15 oz) creamed corn
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for extra cheesiness)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal or Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix (for a firmer texture)
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
  • Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, melted butter, sour cream, egg, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth.
  • Add Corn & Cheese: Fold in the drained whole kernel corn, creamed corn, shredded cheddar (if using), and cornmeal (or muffin mix). Mix well.
  • Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly firm in the center.
  • Serve: Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • For a sweeter version, add 1 tbsp of honey or sugar.
  • For extra crunch, top with crushed Ritz crackers or crispy fried onions before baking.
  • Make it spicy by adding diced jalapeños or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
