Print Recipe

If you’re looking for a dish that wraps you in warmth and comfort, then the Cornbread Casserole Recipe: Simple Dinner Side Dish is just what you need!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1box (8.5 oz) Jiffy corn muffin mix
  • 1can (15 oz) whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1can (15 oz) creamed corn
  • 1 cupsour cream
  • 1/2 cupunsalted butter, melted
  • 2large eggs
  • 1/4 cupgranulated sugar (optional for added sweetness)

Instructions

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your casserole will bake evenly throughout. Grab your 9×13-inch baking dish and grease it well with butter or non-stick spray; this will help the casserole come out easily after baking.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, crack the two large eggs and whisk them together until they are fully blended. Then, add the melted unsalted butter and sour cream to the bowl. If you’re opting for extra sweetness, this is where you mix in the granulated sugar. Stir everything together until it is well combined; this will create a rich base for your casserole.
  3. Next, gently stir in the Jiffy corn muffin mix, making sure to evenly distribute it throughout the mixture. Then add the drained whole kernel corn and creamed corn, mixing until all the ingredients are nicely incorporated. Be careful not to over-mix; you want to keep some texture in the casserole.
  4. Once everything is combined, pour the mixture into your greased baking dish. Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly across the dish to promote consistent baking.
  5. Now it’s time to bake! Place the dish in your preheated oven and let it bake for about 45-50 minutes. Watch for the top to turn a beautiful golden brown, and when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, it’s ready.
  6. Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes. This resting period helps the flavors to settle and makes it easier to cut into squares when you’re ready to serve.

Notes

Leftover casserole can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat in the oven for best texture.
