How to Make Corn Casserole Recipe

Ingredients

Be sure to see the recipe card below for the full listing of ingredients, instructions, notes, and estimated nutritional information.

• Corn – You’ll use both whole and creamed corn in this recipe.
• Flour – You’ll use all-purpose flour.
• Cornmeal – This recipe uses cornmeal. You can substitute with a cornmeal mix rather than flour and cornmeal.
• Butter – Melted butter is used to saute the onion and jalapeno (if using) and then added to the remaining ingredients for the casserole.
• Broth – You’ll use a little broth or stock in this recipe.
• Seasonings – This recipe uses some salt to balance and enhance the flavors. If you want added sweetness in the recipe, add a tablespoon or two of honey or sugar.
• Eggs – Lighten the texture of the casserole.
• Cheese – I love to use grated Monterrey Jack or cheddar cheese. You can also use Pepper Jack cheese rather than adding the optional jalapeno.
• Optional ingredients: onion and jalapeno

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Melt butter. If using any optional ingredients, saute them in the melted butter until tender. If not using the onion or jalapeno, melt the butter and set aside.
2. Combine corn casserole ingredients. Add all of the ingredients to a mixing bowl and stir to combine. Pour into a lightly buttered 9×13 baking dish.
3. Bake. Bake until golden brown and the center has just set, about 40 minutes.

Recipe Variations

Cheese Topped Corn Casserole – Add 1 cup of the grated cheese to the corn casserole mixture. Bake in the 9×13 baking dish for 35 minutes. Top with the remaining cup of grated cheese and return to the oven until the cheese has melted, about 8 more minutes.

Crock Pot Corn Casserole – Add all of the ingredients to a lightly butter crock pot insert. Cook on low for 4 hours. You can half the cheese as described in the cheese-topped corn casserole variation.
