Description
Baked corn casserole with Jiffy mix, sour cream, and two kinds of corn. From Olivia at Flavors.
Ingredients
- 1 can (15 ounces / 425g) whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 can (15 ounces / 425g) creamed corn (do not drain)
- 1 cup (240g) sour cream
- 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 box (8.5 ounces / 240g) Jiffy corn muffin mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup (113g) shredded cheddar (optional)
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 2-quart or 9-inch baking dish.
- Stir both corns, sour cream, melted butter, muffin mix, eggs, and salt until combined. Fold in cheddar if using.
- Spread in the dish. Bake 45 to 55 minutes until the center is set and the top is golden. Rest 10 minutes.
Notes
The center should barely jiggle. Extra 5 minutes if your dish is deep. Leftovers reheat better than they look.

Casserole, not skillet cornbread
Cornbread is sliced from a skillet. This is a spoonable pudding-casserole. Keep them separate.
Substitutions
Greek yogurt can replace sour cream. Frozen corn, thawed and drained, can replace canned kernels.
Mistakes to avoid
Do not drain the creamed corn. Do not overbake until it dries out at the edges only.
Storage
Refrigerate 4 days. Reheat covered at 325°F. Freeze baked portions 1 month.

FAQ
Can I make it without Jiffy?
A homemade mix of 2/3 cup flour, 1/2 cup cornmeal, 3 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and a pinch of salt works.
Is this cornbread?
No. It is wetter and spoonable. Cornbread is a separate bake.
Can I assemble ahead?
Mix up to 8 hours ahead and refrigerate. Add 10 minutes to the bake.
Sweet or savory?
Mildly sweet from the mix. Cheddar pulls it savory.
