Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350F. Grease an 8x8 baking dish, or similar, with butter.

Step 2

Begin by preparing the creamed corn. Heat butter in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add in corn and saute until tender, about 3 minutes.

Step 3

Sprinkle in flour and stir to incorporate flour with the butter and corn. Cook for about 1 minute.

Step 4

Add in milk and cream and stir.

Step 5

Cook corn, stirring, until mixture is thick and creamy, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt.

Step 6

Using a food processor or blender, blend briefly until smooth, but still a little chunky. Set aside to cool a bit.

Step 7

In a large bowl, whisk flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined.

Step 8

Pour in creamed corn (its ok if it is slightly warm). Add in sour cream, melted butter and egg. Mix until just incorporated.

Step 9

Fold in cheese and corn kernels.

Step 10

Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish. Top with the extra 1/2 cup cheese.

Step 11

Bake for 50-60 minutes until puffed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 12

Garnish the top with scallions.

Step 13

Serve with softened butter and drizzled with hot honey, if desired.*if you can’t find good fresh sweet corn, frozen corn tastes/works great! ** You can make the creamed corn ahead of time to cut the prep time in half day of :)
