Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 large yellow onion
- 2 cups whole kernel corn
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or similar-sized casserole dish.
Slice the yellow onion thinly. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and melt the unsalted butter. Add the sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes until soft and caramelized. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, and granulated sugar until smooth and well combined.
Gradually sift in the all-purpose flour while whisking to avoid lumps. Stir in the salt and ground black pepper.
Fold in the corn, caramelized onion, and shredded cheddar cheese into the custard mixture until evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the pudding is just set in the center and lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly for 5-10 minutes before serving.
If desired, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for garnish before serving.
