Corn Casserole
Description
Corn Casserole brings together a mix of canned and creamed corn with a corn muffin base enriched by sour cream and melted butter. This combination creates a soft, custard-like interior with a subtle corn flavor and a golden crust on top. The use of Jiffy corn muffin mix forms the structure, while the creamed corn and sour cream add moisture and smoothness.
The casserole is baked in a greased dish at moderate oven temperature until it firms up and develops a pleasant, lightly browned surface. The result is a comforting texture that is moist, but set enough to serve in slices or scoops. The natural sweetness of the corn balances the richness from butter and sour cream.
This dish complements savory proteins and other side dishes in a meal and can be made ahead, chilled, and then reheated, which helps with planning for gatherings or family dinners. Optional ingredients like minced onion, jalapeno, or cheese can be added for extra flavor and variation.
For storage, leftovers keep well refrigerated for several days and can freeze up to three months when wrapped tightly. Allow the casserole to come to room temperature before reheating to ensure even warming.
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter melted, salted
- 2 large egg
- 8.5 ounces Jiffy corn muffin mix 1 box
- 2 cups corn kernels canned or frozen, drained and thawed
- 15 ounces creamed corn 1 can

Notes
- The casserole can be made ahead: cool completely after baking and refrigerate for up to 2 days before reheating.
- Reheat by allowing it to sit at room temperature for 60 minutes, then bake at 350°F for 15-20 minutes until heated through.
- Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or can be frozen for up to 3 months; thaw before reheating.
- Optional additions include minced onion, green onion, diced jalapeno, crumbled bacon, and sharp or pepper Jack cheese for enhanced flavor.
