Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 3 cups corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned, drained)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking the casserole evenly.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, heavy cream, melted butter, cornmeal, salt, and pepper. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is consistent.
  3. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into a greased 8×8-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly for uniform cooking.
  4. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until the casserole is set in the middle and the top is lightly golden brown.
  5. Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. This helps the casserole to firm up and makes it easier to slice.

Notes

  • You can use fresh, frozen (thawed and drained), or canned corn depending on availability.
  • For a richer flavor, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or add shredded cheese to the mixture.
  • Ensure the baking dish is well-greased to prevent sticking.
  • To make it gluten-free, verify that the cornmeal is certified gluten-free.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
