Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole kernel corn and cream-style corn.
Add the flour, sugar, and salt to the corn mixture. Stir until evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and heavy cream until smooth. Stir in melted butter and vanilla extract.
Gradually pour the wet mixture into the corn mixture, stirring until fully combined. If desired, add ground nutmeg for a hint of warmth and spice.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Place the dish into the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
Remove the corn pudding from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
