Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or casserole dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained sweet corn, creamed corn, buttermilk, and melted butter. Stir until evenly mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until smooth. Add this mixture to the corn mixture and stir well.
In another bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, diced green bell pepper, and diced onion, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the batter.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the Boston Corn Bake cool slightly for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
