How to make Corn Pudding:

This recipe is as simple as mixing and baking. Melt your butter and allow it to fully cool before mixing it in with your eggs.

Once the butter is cooled mix in all your ingredients in a large mixing bowl and then add to your casserole dish. Bake then serve and enjoy.

Ingredient Notes:

• Eggs
• Butter: I used unsalted butter and melted it before using.
• Sugar: regular granulated sugar.
• Milk: Use 2% or whole milk
• Sweet Corn: canned anddrained.
• Cream Style Corn
• Cornstarch
• Seasoning: I just use salt and pepper to season.

Directions:

Step One: Preheat oven and prepare a casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray. 

Step Two: Place eggs in a large mixing bowl, whisk and set aside.

Step Three: In a separate bowl mix together butter and sugar. Allow to set for several minutes to cool then add in milk. Once butter is cooled add to eggs and whisk.

• Tip: Do not add hot butter to your eggs! You might just end up with cooked scrambled eggs if you do!

Step Four: Next add in drained sweet corn and cream corn and mix well.

Last mix in cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Add this to your prepared casserole dish.

Step Five: Bake for 1 hour or until corn pudding is cooked through.

Test it: To test add a toothpick or butter knife into the center. When it comes out clean you know it’s done.

What you need:

For this recipe I used a 2-quart casserole dish. You can use any casserole dish you have on hand.
