Main Ingredients
- 1 box corn muffin mix (8.5 oz. Jiffy)
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup sour cream (8 oz.)
- 1 can regular corn kernels, drained (15.25 oz.)
- 1 can creamed corn (15.25 oz.)
- 2 large eggs
- Preheat the Oven and Prepare Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Gather all ingredients and make sure the whole kernel corn is properly drained to avoid excess moisture.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, lightly whip the eggs with a fork. Add melted butter and sour cream to the eggs and stir to combine. Then add both cans of corn — one can of drained whole kernel corn and one can of creamed corn. Whisk everything together until well blended.
- Incorporate the Corn Muffin Mix: Pour the entire box of Jiffy corn muffin mix into the wet ingredients. Stir until no lumps remain and the mixture is smooth and uniform in texture.
- Prepare the Casserole Dish: Butter an 8×8 inch casserole dish thoroughly to prevent sticking. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and spread it evenly for uniform baking.
- Bake the Casserole: Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 45 minutes. The top will turn golden brown, edges will slightly crack, and the center should be firm but not jiggly when done.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Serve warm as a delightful, creamy side dish to complement your meal.
Notes
- Make sure to drain the whole kernel corn well to avoid a watery casserole.
- Use full-fat sour cream for the best creamy texture and flavor.
- You can substitute melted margarine for butter if preferred.
- Allow the casserole to rest for a few minutes after baking to set properly.
- This casserole can be prepared a day ahead and reheated before serving.
- Optional: Add shredded cheese or chopped jalapeños for added flavor.
