Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (15 oz) can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 (15 oz) can cream-style corn
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • For the glaze:
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • Optional add-ins:
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Chopped fresh herbs (parsley, chives)
  • 1–2 tablespoons chopped jalapeños

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Add melted butter, sour cream, and honey; whisk until smooth.
  4. Stir in whole kernel corn and cream-style corn until well blended.
  5. Sprinkle dry ingredients over wet mixture and gently fold together. Do not over-mix.
  6. Fold in optional add-ins if using.
  7. Pour batter into prepared dish and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 35–40 minutes, until edges are golden and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out mostly clean.
  9. While casserole bakes, melt butter for glaze in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in honey until smooth.
  10. Once casserole is baked, remove from oven and immediately brush honey-butter glaze over the top, focusing on edges.
  11. Return to oven for 5–7 minutes, until glaze bubbles and forms a shiny, caramelized crust.
  12. Let casserole sit for 10–15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For gluten-free, use certified gluten-free flour and cornmeal. For dairy-free, substitute plant-based butter and coconut yogurt or sour cream. If using fresh corn, substitute about 2 cups cooked kernels. Tent with foil if top browns too quickly. Let casserole rest before slicing for best texture.
