- This recipe for corn pudding is delicious and budget-friendly, perfect for all kinds of get-togethers!
- Corn pudding casserole is so easy to make and can even be assembled up to a day ahead for easy baking! Even better, it can be frozen so it’s ready just in time for the busy holiday season!
Ingredients and Variations
Cornbread Mix – Jiffy is the standard here, but any package of 8.5 ounce cornbread mix will do! It’s a delicious and versatile mixture that can be used in many recipes like this jalapeno cornbread.
Dairy – Be sure the butter is melted before adding it, and use full-fat sour cream for the richest flavors. Greek yogurt can be switched out for the sour cream for fewer calories, and a block of cream cheese will make the casserole extra rich and dense (be sure to use the cream cheese at room temperature for easy blending)!
Corn – Creamed corn keeps this casserole extra moist, but feel free to add canned, frozen, or fresh corn kernels for extra color and texture. Whole corn can be used in place of creamed corn, simply mash it with a potato masher until it’s creamy before using.
Variations – Add a bag of mixed vegetables (no need to thaw!) in Step 3 or just a handful of sliced mushrooms, green onions, or spinach. Make it meaty and mix in sliced summer sausage, diced ham, or bacon bits. For a zesty Mexican-style side, add some sliced jalapenos, cheddar cheese, sliced black olives, and taco seasoning. A sprinkle of breadcrumbs over the top before baking will give corn pudding casserole a little bit of tasty crunch!
