Thaw and drain the frozen spinach thoroughly, squeezing out any excess liquid.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornbread mix, milk, eggs, melted butter, sour cream, and cream-style corn until smooth.
Stir in the thawed spinach, sharp cheddar cheese, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper until well combined.
Spray the inside of a crock pot insert with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Pour the mixture into the prepared crock pot, spreading it out evenly.
Cover with the lid and cook on low heat for 3 hours, or until the spoon bread is set and slightly pulling away from the edges of the crock pot.
Carefully remove the lid and let the spoon bread rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Scoop and serve warm as a side dish or comforting main course.
