Description
A perfect side dish that brings comfort, sweetness, and a rich cheesy flavor to your table. This dish is a wonderful blend of sweet honey glazed corn casserole with parmesan crust.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cans (15 oz each) creamed corn
- 1 can (15 oz) whole kernel corn, drained
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup cornbread mix
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish using either butter or non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamed corn, whole kernel corn, melted butter, honey, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, cornbread mix, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together until well combined, making sure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Once the mixture is ready, pour it into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula to smooth the top so that it’s even. This helps the casserole cook uniformly.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for about 40-45 minutes, or until the casserole is golden brown and set. You’ll know it’s done when the top has a slight firmness and it’s not jiggly in the center.
- During the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle a little extra Parmesan cheese over the top. This step is what makes the crust crispy and flavorful. Return the casserole to the oven and let it bake until the cheese has melted and formed a golden-brown crust.
- Once done, remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. This will make it easier to cut and serve while allowing the flavors to settle.
Notes
- Use high-quality corn, butter, and cheese for the best flavor.
- When combining the ingredients, mix just enough to combine everything evenly. Overmixing can result in a denser texture.
- You can add extra toppings such as chopped green onions or crumbled bacon for more flavor.
- Feel free to use different cheeses like mozzarella or gouda if you want a different flavor profile.
- This casserole is perfect for potlucks and family gatherings. If you need more, you can easily double the recipe and bake it in a larger dish.
