How to Make Scalloped Corn
Description
This scalloped corn recipe blends large eggs with whole milk to form a smooth base. Melted butter and granulated sugar are added for richness and subtle sweetness. Fresh, frozen, or canned drained sweet corn combines into this custard mixture along with salt, ground black pepper, and onion powder for balanced seasoning. Shredded cheddar cheese is incorporated into the mixture and reserved for topping.
The mixture is poured into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish and covered with additional shredded cheese and a layer of corn flakes. The corn flakes provide a contrasting crunch after baking. The casserole is baked at 325°F for 45 to 55 minutes until set and lightly browned, with a toothpick inserted in the center coming out clean to indicate doneness.
The finished dish is creamy and savory with a crunchy topping and brings out the natural sweetness of the corn. It's suitable as a comforting side for various meals and can use different types of corn depending on availability.
