Jiffy Corn Casserole (5 Ingredients) Easy & Delicious!

"Okay, I have made this in the past for "Mexican" night & poker nights... but then we had this again a few weeks ago at a friends party and just had to post the recipe for easy access & safe keeping. There are several recipes out there for this casserole, but they are all different. This one has no eggs (which seems to be hard to find) and uses only 5 ingredients. It's so easy to make but always a crowd pleaser - try it at a BBQ, alongside chili, or as a Holiday side-dish... ** NOTE: The consistency is supposed to be like a spoonbread, it is a casserole, not like cornbread you would cut into pieces -this is like Chi Chi's corn casserole they served on the side. PS- I make a double batch & bake in a 9x13x2 casserole dish. Lastly, if you add about 3/4 cup of sugar to this, you could serve it as a dessert :-)"

Questions & Replies

  1. Can leftovers be frozen as single service sizes? I love this, but I'm the only on in the family that does.
     
  2. Can I make this a day ahead and reheat on Thursday?
     
  3. Could you add chopped green chiles?
     
  4. Has anyone substituted the Jiffy mix with a gluten free cornbread mix (i.e., Krusteaz)?
     
  5. Can I use Mackenzie's 20 oz frozen creamed corn only, no whole kernel corn? and bake it in a 13 x 9 foil disposable foil pan ? how many Jiffy boxes do I need ? And how much sour cream & butter do I need ? How many eggs ? HELP ANYBODY ? I have to make this for work (potluck xmas dinner) on Monday 12/18/2017

Reviews

  1. OMG!!!! I made this last night along with chili for a last minute dinner night, EVERYONE RAVED and most left with the recipe. I cannot believe how much of this I ate! I see that the last reviewer didn't understand that it is more of a casserole than a thick cornbread, so I want to make sure that people know that it is supposed to be like a spoonbread texture. I actually knew this in advance and I searched the web for this recipe for that reason. It is a side dish & is meant to be eaten with a fork or spoon - again, corn CASSEROLE not cornBREAD. Thanks for posting, I am glad this is on here so I have to search no longer when I need it again & again. Honestly, not one person out of 12 did not LOVE this dish.
     
  2. I made it just as written and it was fantastic. If you are trying to reduce the calories just don't eat as much or make something else. I make this every holiday when no one is counting calories. You can go back to green beans the next day.
     
  3. I've used this recipe for years. Love it! Easy. My grandchildren request it all the time. I add shredded cheese and onion sometimes. Making it tonight with a meatloaf dinner.
     
  4. This is my 2nd time making this, the first time it was awesome and it smells just as good baking right now! As a single person this makes quite a bit, which is a good thing, as I was able to slice this dish when cold, and fry it up with butter and syrup like traditional polenta! Double duty, double delicious!
     
  5. going to try but will ad bacon?

Tweaks

  1. I make this for almost every holiday. I add 4 beaten eggs and 1/4 c. sugar which makes it into more of a corn souffle cake. That way it can be served either hot or cold. I get requests to bring it for every holiday.
     
  2. I do tweak it just a bit. I don't use sour cream, but I substitute French Onion dip. Just a bit of an onion taste without the onion mess. My family LOVES this version. It will be on it's way to a church potluck/picnic tonight!
     
  3. Thanks for inspiring me. I was too anxious and threw everything in mixing bowl, an egg, Greek yogurt, added 1/4 cup chopped fire roasted pepper, 1/2 cup chives, 1/4 cup cheddar and a dash of cayenne!...wonderful as well as beautiful since I baked it in a smoke glass bowl.
     
  4. Added 1 egg, mixed with the sour cream before adding to the mixture.
     
  5. I'd highly recommend using a 9x13 dish, bake 8-10 mins longer at 365°, and cover with foil for the last 10 mins.
