Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 can whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 can cream-style corn
- 1 box corn muffin mix (8.5 oz)
- 1 cup sour cream
- ½ cup melted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tbsp honey (divided)
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent the casserole from sticking during baking.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn muffin mix, drained whole kernel corn, cream-style corn, sour cream, melted butter, eggs, salt, and 2 tablespoons of honey. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated, forming a smooth batter.
- Pour and Bake: Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Place in the oven and bake for 45–50 minutes or until the casserole is golden on top and set in the center.
- Honey Glaze: About 5 minutes before the baking time ends, remove the dish briefly and drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of honey evenly over the surface. Return to the oven to allow the glaze to warm and absorb, enhancing the casserole’s sweetness and shine.
- Rest Before Serving: When baking is complete, remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5–10 minutes. This helps it set further and makes it easier to serve.
Notes
- The honey glaze added near the end intensifies the sweet flavor without compromising texture.
- Ensure the baking dish is properly greased to prevent sticking.
- This dish pairs well with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or makes a hearty addition to holiday meals.
- For a richer flavor, consider using homemade corn muffin mix or adding a pinch of cayenne for subtle heat.
- Letting the casserole rest after baking ensures cleaner slices and better texture.
