Savory Corn Pudding is a comforting, crowd-pleasing dish that combines the sweetness of corn with rich, cheesy goodness. This recipe is perfect for family gatherings or potlucks and is surprisingly easy to whip up!
Whole kernel corn provides a burst of texture and sweetness to the dish, balancing out the savory elements. Creamed corn adds a smooth, creamy consistency, enhancing the overall richness. Sour cream contributes a tangy creaminess that complements the corn's natural sweetness.
Melted butter infuses the pudding with rich flavor and helps keep it moist. Eggs act as a binding agent, ensuring the pudding holds together well. Shredded cheddar cheese adds a delightful cheesy note, elevating the dish's savory profile.
Corn muffin mix is the key to the pudding's fluffy texture, while green onions add a subtle, fresh onion flavor. Salt and black pepper season the pudding perfectly, bringing all the ingredients together.
This Savory Corn Pudding pairs beautifully with roasted or grilled meats like chicken or pork. It also works well as a side dish alongside a fresh green salad. For a comforting meal, serve it with a hearty soup or stew.
First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the oven is hot and ready for baking. Next, grab a large mixing bowl and combine the whole kernel corn, creamed corn, sour cream, melted butter, and eggs. Mix everything together until well combined; you want an even distribution of ingredients.
Now, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, corn muffin mix, chopped green onions, salt, and black pepper. Make sure to mix thoroughly so every bite is full of flavor. Pour this mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly to ensure it bakes uniformly.
Place the baking dish in your preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes. You'll know it's done when the top is golden brown and the center is set. Once baked, let it cool for about 10 minutes before serving. This resting time allows the flavors to meld and makes serving easier.
