Southern Corn Pudding

A true comfort food that brings back fond memories of grandma's house and Sunday dinners. Corn pudding and cornbread are classic Southern dishes. When they are combined, you have a moist, sweet-savory side dish that is perfect for any holiday get-together and is easy enough to make for an everyday meal. The pudding is custardlike, similar to the classic corn-pudding combination of corn, cream and eggs. Adding corn-muffin mix takes the recipe to a new level and provides the flavor and texture of cornbread. This simple dish is great served with any grilled entree, barbecue or chili and is the perfect accompaniment for a roast, baked ham or roasted turkey.

Ingredients

  • 1 package (8 1/2 oz) corn muffin mix (preferably Jiffy)
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon sugar*
  • 1 can (15 1/4 oz) whole kernel corn**, drained
  • 1 can (14 3/4 oz) cream style corn
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine*** (1 stick), melted and cooled
  • 1 cup (8 oz) sour cream***
  • 3 large eggs, at room temperature, beaten

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter (or spray with nonstick cooking spray) a 2-quart casserole dish or 9- by 9-inch baking pan.

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix until blended. Do not overmix. Pour into prepared casserole dish and bake, uncovered, on center rack of preheated 350 degree F oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until golden brown on top and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to sit 5 minutes before serving.

(If edges begin to brown too much, take a piece of foil large enough to cover the pan, quarter it, cut a 3 to 4 inch hole in the center, open the foil, and drape it loosely over the pan.)

Makes 6 to 8 servings.

* Note: Taste the corn meal mix that you use to determine how sweet it is. If using Jiffy or if the mix is sweet, use 1/2 teaspoon sugar, if not, use the full teaspoon to bring out the sweetness of the corn.

** Note: If you prefer, you can replace the canned corn with 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen thawed whole kernel corn that has been cooked.

*** Note: For a lower-fat version, use low-fat or fat-free sour cream and substitute applesauce for the melted butter.

Variations: Adjust the recipe to suit your families tastes by adding ingredients. Shredded Cheddar cheese, chopped onion, bell pepper or canned diced green chilies are wonderful additions.

I make this all the time and it always gets rave reviews. I use a recipe that calls for 2 eggs verses three and no sugar added to it but other than that it is the same recipe. EXCELLENT!!

As an option for changing up the recipe - add some squash and onion prior to baking (drained of course) and bake per recipe instructions.

Sounds great! I would use less corn and add shredded cheddar and caramelized onion--and maybe serve with taco salad. Dragonwitch
