Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups sweet corn kernels (canned or frozen and thawed)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 0.5 cup bread crumbs
- 1 tablespoon additional butter (for topping, melted)
- 2 tablespoons parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Slowly whisk in the flour until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
Stir in the corn and shredded cheddar cheese, mixing well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs and the additional melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the buttered bread crumbs evenly over the top of the corn mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set in the center.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, cheesy scalloped corn!
