Instant Pot Corn Casserole
Description
This corn casserole uses a boxed corn muffin mix combined with eggs, canned creamed corn, drained kernel corn, diced green chiles, melted butter, and sour cream to create a thick batter. The mixture is poured into a greased pan covered with foil and cooked in an Instant Pot using high pressure for 45 minutes. Following a natural release, the casserole is topped with shredded cheddar cheese and broiled briefly to melt the topping.
The blend of sweet corn and spicy green chiles provides depth in flavor, while the pressure cooking method ensures a moist texture with minimal hands-on time. The melted cheddar adds a mild sharpness and creamy finish.
This casserole makes a versatile side dish suitable for dinners and holiday meals, complementing a variety of main courses.
For those who do not have the boxed corn mix, it can be made by combining all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and vegetable oil, ensuring the recipe can be prepared with standard pantry ingredients.
