Ingredients
- 1 can (15 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 can (15 ounces) creamed corn
- 1 package (8.5 ounces) Jiffy corn muffin mix
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
How to Make Jiffy Corn Casserole
- Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to ensure easy removal of the casserole after baking.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the whole kernel corn, creamed corn, Jiffy corn muffin mix, sour cream, and melted butter. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Add Cheese (Optional): If you love a cheesy twist, add the shredded cheddar cheese to the mixture and stir until evenly distributed.
- Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving. This will make it easier to cut and serve.
Helpful Tips
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure the sour cream and butter are at room temperature for easier mixing.
- Test for Doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of the casserole. If it comes out clean, the casserole is done.
- Rest Before Serving: Let the casserole sit for about 5-10 minutes after baking to firm up, making it easier to serve.
Substitutions and Variations
- Lighter Version: Substitute the sour cream with Greek yogurt for a lighter version.
- Spicy Kick: Add a can of diced green chilies or jalapeños for a spicy twist.
- Herbs and Spices: Mix in some chopped fresh herbs like parsley or chives for added flavor.
- Different Cheeses: Experiment with different cheeses like pepper jack or mozzarella for a unique flavor profile.
