Corn Casserole – A delicious, popular Southern side dish that’s made with whole corn, creamed corn and Jiffy corn muffin mix. Here I’ve also included copycat directions to make it from scratch.
Easy Corn Casserole Recipe
Also known as creamed corn casserole or spoon bread casserole. It’s a comforting, corn side dish that is very moist, perfectly sweet, slightly creamy, deliciously buttery and oh so tasty when served warm from the oven.
It’s incredibly easy to make whether you opt to go with the corn muffin mix or make it from scratch. Both variations are perfectly delicious – it must be all the butter!
The nice thing about making it from scratch though is that is the option to control amount of sweetener used, you can adjust according to personal preference. Whereas the box mix version may be a little sweet to some.
