    This Jiffy Corn Casserole has a wonderfully moist, slightly sweet, creamy texture but still holds together well to be cut into neat slices. It’s an effortless, crowd-pleasing side dish that’s delicious year-round, but truly shines at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    This Jiffy corn casserole is the perfect fusion of three classic corn dishes: it combines the creamy, custard-like texture of corn pudding, the moist, cohesive consistency of corn casserole, and the sliceable, slightly crumbly texture of cornbread. The result is a deliciously rich and versatile dish that brings out the best of all three!

    The best part? It's incredibly easy to make with just a few pantry staples and only 5 minutes of prep. Simply mix up the no-fuss batter, pop it in the oven, and let it work its magic. Looking for a muffin version? Try our amazing jalapeno cornbread muffins made from scratch.

    This dish is the perfect side for any holiday gathering, offering a stress-free solution to include as part of a Thanksgiving recipe.

    Why you'll love it?

    • Easy pantry ingredients
    • Moist and creamy texture
    • Cuts into perfectly neat slices
    • Slightly sweet and salty
    • Perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas or any holiday gatherings
    • Easy enough for weeknight dinner
    • Double the recipe for a crowd pleasing side dish.

    Ingredients

    Scroll down to the recipe card below for full information on ingredients and amounts.

    • Corn - You'll need two types of canned corn: whole kernel sweet corn and creamed corn. Be sure to drain the whole kernel corn well, but use the creamed corn straight from the can without draining.
    • Cornbread mix — I used an 8-ounce box of Jiffy corn muffin mix, which you might also recognize as Jiffy cornbread mix.
    • Sour cream — Sour cream adds moisture and a subtle tang that perfectly complements the sweetness of the corn. You can easily substitute it with plain yogurt if preferred.
    • Eggs — Some Jiffy corn casserole recipes use no eggs or just one, but I find that adding two eggs creates a lighter texture and helps the custard set as it bakes, making it easier to achieve neat, clean slices.
    • Butter — I recommend using unsalted butter for this recipe. If you only have salted butter, simply omit the added salt. Also, be sure to let the melted butter cool slightly before mixing it into the corn casserole pudding.
    • Sugar - I find that adding 2 tablespoons of sugar enhances the natural sweetness of the corn, giving the corn bread pudding a subtle sweetness that’s not overpowering, and making it extra flavorful. If you prefer a savory casserole, you can easily omit the sugar.
    • Baking powder - Just ½ teaspoon of baking powder provides a light lift, ensuring the corn casserole isn't too dense.

    Baking dish suggestions

    You can bake Jiffy corn casserole pudding in a variety of baking dishes. A square 8x8-inch pan, like a Pyrex or ceramic dish, works perfectly for the recipe as given. If you're serving a larger crowd, you can easily double the recipe and bake it in a 9x13-inch rectangular glass or ceramic dish. And if you have beautiful baking dishes, this recipe is a great way to showcase them, since the casserole is often served directly from the dish.

    For individual servings, ramekins or small baking dishes are ideal, offering a perfectly portioned, custardy bite for each guest. They also make for an elegant and easy presentation.

    Recipe tips

    • Make sure to drain the whole kernel corn well.
    • Double the recipe and bake in a 9x13 rectangular baking dish.

    Frequently asked questions

    Can you make it ahead of time?

    Prepare the batter and spoon it into the baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. About 30 minutes before baking, remove it from the fridge. Bake as directed, adding 5 extra minutes if needed, since the batter will be colder. Start checking for doneness around 35 minutes.

    Can you freeze it?

    While you can freeze leftovers, for the best texture, I don’t recommend making the entire Jiffy corn casserole in advance and freezing it. However, leftover casserole can be frozen and reheated. For optimal flavor and texture, it’s best to bake and enjoy it fresh!
