Jalapeño Cheddar Corn Casserole
Our easy Corn Casserole recipe is the perfect side dish for any special occasion, Thanksgiving dinner, or family gathering!
Ingredients
- 14.75 oz can of sweet corn drained
- 14.75 oz can of cream style corn
- 1 package of Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 1 cup sour cream or dairy-free sour cream
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 jalapeño chopped (with seeds and membranes removed)
- 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese shredded & divided
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and spray the inside of a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Casserole Mix: Put the canned corn, creamed corn, corn muffin mix, melted butter, sour cream, eggs, baking powder, salt, chopped jalapeño, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese in a large bowl. Mix to fully combine.
- Bake: Pour the corn mixture into the prepared casserole dish. Place in the preheated oven, uncovered, to bake for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown on top.
- Cheese Topping: Add the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese on top of the casserole and continue baking for 5 more minutes or until cheese is melted.
- Serve: Let cool slightly at room temperature and then enjoy!
Notes
- Dairy Free: simply use dairy-free sour cream, a plant-based butter, and omit the cheese or use a dairy-free alternative.
- Prep Ahead of Time: option to mix up the corn mixture, pour in a prepared baking dish, cover with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and keep in the fridge until ready to bake. Great option to prep the night before and serve the next day. Highly recommend letting it sit out at room temperature before moving to the oven.
- Spice Level: adding 1 chopped jalapeño without the seeds/membranes adds a very mild heat that is perfect in this casserole. Feel free to add more, if you prefer a higher level of spice!
