Southern Sweet Corn Casserole

If you’re looking for a corn bread that serves more like a corn casserole, this is the dish for you. Easy to throw together and makes a delicious side dish for any meal. I served it along side barbecue brisket and potato salad and it was a hit.

Ingredients Needed For Corn Casserole

  • Whole Kernel Corn. Canned, fresh or frozen will all work. If using fresh or frozen you will need about two cups. If canned, one 15 oz can works well just make sure to drain it.
  • Creamed corn. 1 can also works here.
  • Sour Cream
  • Mayonnaise. You can also use homemade mayo if you prefer. If you’ve never made homemade, try my recipe here.
  • Melted butter.
  • Corn muffin mix. I use one box of Jiffy Corn Muffin mix and it works well.
  • Pepperjack cheese. You can use cheddar or any other cheese you like if you’re not a fan of pepper jack, however buy a block of cheese and grate it yourself. So much better than pre-shredded although you can use it if thats what you have.
