This corn pudding recipe is unique because in addition to the typical ingredients of corn, butter, milk, eggs, and sugar it also includes cornmeal for a still creamy but hardier side dish. I often serve corn pudding at holiday meals and pot luck dinners because it’s easy to prepare, transports well, reheats fine in the microwave, and both children and adults love its slightly sweet, creamy goodness. Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make corn pudding:
Ingredients:
1 can (15.25 oz.) whole kernel corn, drained
1 can (14.25 oz.) cream-style corn
1 cup half and half (or milk)
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup cornmeal
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Pour into a greased 2-quart casserole dish. Bake, uncovered, at 325 degrees for 1.5 to 2 hours or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center of the dish comes out clean.
Corn pudding makes a great side for chicken, turkey, or beef. This week I served it with barbecued beef brisket (recipe below) and green beans. It was a great combo.
I’ve never tried corn pudding. Looks like I’ll be cooking some up tonight. I’m always looking for new food ideas. Thanks!!
This is my daughter’s all-time favorite vegetable recipe. I think your son will like it, too.
I KNOW he will like it. My only problem these days is keeping him full. He can’t seem to get enough to eat.
I grew up with five brothers; they were eating machines, too.
“Eating machine”….perfect description!
We don’t use any corn in French cuisine. I think that’s a huge mistake! Thanks for the recipe!!
If you try it, I’d love your feedback.
Darn that corn pudding looks good! But…it Jan. loose the extra holiday pounds ….
I know, I’m in the same mode. If you use skim milk instead of half and half and reduce the butter to half of what I’ve listed, then this would actually be a relatively low-fat dish. I’ve made it this way–when I’m being good–and it’s still delicious, just a little less creamy.
oh i just love corn pudding…looks lovely…sarah
Thanks, Sarah.
