Paula Deen’s Corn Casserole is a classic Southern side dish that’s perfect for any special occasion or family dinner. This cheesy, creamy casserole is made from simple ingredients you likely have on hand, like corn, eggs, milk, butter, sugar, and flour.
To make Paula Deen’s Corn Casserole, start by preheating your oven to 350°F. Grease a 2-quart casserole dish and set it aside. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 beaten eggs, a 14.75-ounce can of creamed corn, a 15-ounce can of whole kernel corn (drained), 1/2 cup milk, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Melt 1/4 cup butter and stir it into the corn mixture. Pour the mixture into your prepared casserole dish. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the center is set. During the last 10 minutes of baking, sprinkle 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese over the top and continue baking until the cheese is melted.
Let the casserole stand for 10 minutes, then serve and enjoy! The melted cheese, creamy corn, and subtle sweetness are a combination that’s hard to beat. This comforting side dish is always a hit at potlucks, family dinners, and other gatherings. The recipe is easy to double for a crowd, and you can also add other mix-ins like diced bell peppers, jalapeños for some heat, or chopped bacon.
For extra decadence, top individual servings with a dollop of sour cream, chopped fresh chives or green onions, and an extra sprinkle of Cheddar cheese. Paula Deen’s Corn Casserole is a Southern classic that will have everyone asking for seconds. Enjoy!
