Main Ingredients
- 1 can whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 can cream-style corn
- 1 box corn muffin mix (8.5 oz)
- 1 cup sour cream
- ½ cup melted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tbsp honey (divided)
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish thoroughly to prevent sticking and ensure easy serving.
- Mix ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn muffin mix, both types of corn (whole kernel and cream-style), sour cream, melted butter, eggs, salt, and 2 tablespoons of honey. Stir gently just until all ingredients are evenly incorporated, being careful not to overmix to maintain a light texture.
- Bake the casserole: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes. The casserole should turn golden brown and be set in the center when done.
- Glaze with honey: About 5 minutes before the baking time is complete, remove the casserole briefly from the oven and drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of honey evenly over the top. Return it to the oven to finish baking, allowing the honey to caramelize slightly.
- Rest before serving: Once out of the oven, allow the casserole to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. This resting period lets it firm up for easier slicing and enhances the flavors before serving.
Notes
- Add cheese to the batter or on top before baking for an extra layer of savory flavor.
- Substitute honey with maple syrup to give the dish a warm fall-inspired twist.
- Avoid overmixing the batter. Mix just until combined to keep the casserole light and fluffy.
