Crock Pot Creamed Corn
Description
Crock Pot Creamed Corn combines frozen corn with a velvety mixture of cream cheese, butter, milk, sugar, salt, and pepper. The method starts with warming the dairy and seasoning components to create a smooth sauce, which then coats the corn in a slow cooker. Cooking on low or high heat develops a tender corn texture infused with the creamy blend. The dish thickens more if cooked uncovered briefly at the end, enhancing its spoonable consistency.
The flavor is mildly sweet from the corn and sugar, balanced with the richness of cream cheese and butter, while the salt and pepper provide subtle savory notes. The final texture is creamy and thickened, making it an ideal warm side that complements roasted meats or holiday plates.
Storage instructions recommend keeping leftovers refrigerated for 3-5 days or freezing up to 3-4 months. Reheating gently preserves its creamy quality. The recipe notes also suggest thickening by continued uncovered cooking to evaporate excess moisture, allowing the creamed corn to become a hearty accompaniment for meals.
Ingredients
- 16 ounces corn kernels frozen
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- ½ cup butter
- ½ cup milk
- 1 tablespoons sugar
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Use a medium-sized saucepan to heat up the cream cheese, butter, milk, sugar, pepper, and garlic salt. Mix until well blended.
- Place the frozen corn in the slow cooker and cover it with the cream cheese mixture. Cook on HIGH for 1 hour or LOW for 2-3 hours, making sure to mix before serving.
Notes
- After slow cooking, uncover the crockpot and cook on high for an additional 15 minutes to reduce excess moisture and thicken the creamed corn.
- Cool before storing leftovers in an airtight container; refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 4 months for future use.
