My Cooking Experience 👩‍🍳

With over 4-5 years of cooking experience, I’ve perfected this Cornbread Casserole to be the ultimate creamy and fluffy side dish. The secret? Using both whole kernel and creamed corn to achieve the best texture and flavor!

Ingredients 🛒

1 box (8.5 oz) Jiffy cornbread mix
1 can (15 oz) whole kernel corn, drained
1 can (15 oz) creamed corn
1 cup sour cream
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper

Instructions 🍽️

1. Preheat the Oven 🔥

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.

2. Mix the Ingredients 🥣

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornbread mix, whole kernel corn, creamed corn, sour cream, melted butter, eggs, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well incorporated.

3. Add the Cheese & Bake 🧀

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top if using. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy this warm, creamy, and fluffy cornbread casserole with your favorite dishes!
