Ingredients
Scale
Core Ingredients
- 1 (15 oz) can whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 (15 oz) can creamed corn
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 large eggs
- 1 (8.5 oz) box Jiffy cornbread mix
- 1/4 cup sugar (optional, for a sweeter pudding)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or an 8×8-inch dish if you prefer a thicker pudding.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, and sour cream until the mixture is smooth. Then, stir in the whole kernel corn, creamed corn, Jiffy cornbread mix, and sugar if you want a sweeter taste. Season with salt and pepper according to your preference.
- Combine and Pour: Stir all ingredients thoroughly until well combined. Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes. The corn pudding is done when the top turns golden brown and the center is set, which you can test by inserting a toothpick that should come out clean.
- Serve: Allow the corn pudding to cool slightly for a few minutes before serving. It can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature, making it versatile for any occasion.
Notes
- If you prefer a less sweet corn pudding, omit the sugar.
- Use an 8×8-inch baking dish for thicker pudding, and a 9×13-inch dish for a thinner pudding with more surface area.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and gently reheated in the oven or microwave.
- For a richer flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or shredded cheese on top before baking.
