Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 can (15 oz) whole kernel corn drained
  • 1 can (14.75 oz) creamed corn
  • 1 package (8.5 oz) dry cornbread mix
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup butter melted
  • 2 large eggs beaten

Equipment

  • 9x9-inch baking dish
  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Whisk or wooden spoon
  • Can Opener
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Preheat and prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
  2. Mix ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the drained whole kernel corn, creamed corn, dry cornbread mix, sour cream, melted butter, and beaten eggs. Mix until well combined and no dry spots remain.
  3. Transfer to baking dish: Pour the mixture into your prepared baking dish and spread evenly with a spoon or spatula.
  4. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. Cool and serve: Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. This helps it set up and makes it easier to cut and serve.

Notes

Make-ahead tips: This casserole can be assembled up to 2 days ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator. Add 10 extra minutes to baking time if cooking from cold.
Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat at 300°F for 10-15 minutes or microwave individual portions.
Variations: Try adding diced jalapeños, green onions, or shredded cheese for extra flavor. For a larger crowd, double the recipe and use a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Gluten-free option: Use a gluten-free cornbread mix to make this recipe suitable for those avoiding gluten.
