Made this with dinner and will definitely make it again. It was so easy!
So easy and SOOOOO delicious. One of my favorite side dishes ever.
I’d love to know how long you cook it for if you double the recipe and put it in a 9×13 dish? I’ve made a single recipe, and the only thing different in mine is I add about a cup of cheddar cheese.
Sorry! I just went back to the post and saw that you have already answered this question. Thank you!
Ok, so I need to read more slowly bc you didn’t answer the question about how long to cook it when doubling the recipe. Does that mean the cook time remains the same?
I doubled the amount how long do I bake for?
LOVE this recipe. Made it over the holidays and now making it again now for Easter. Definitely a keeper. Easy to make.
Thank you, Linda! It’s definitely a staple in our holiday lineup as well!
Could these be made in a Muffin tin??
We haven’t tested it but think it would work! You’ll likely need to reduce the baking time.
It was pretty good. Corny and sweet at the same time! No leftovers!
We’re so glad it was a hit!
I want to double the recipe. Do I just double everything including the Jiffy cornbread mix and put it in a 9X13 dish?
Can u double the recipe and bake for the same amount of time in a full size casserole dish?
Can this recipe be doubled? If so, would the cooking time be the same?
THIS IS MY HUSBANDS VERY FAVORITE THIING TO MAKE FOR ANY AND EVERY EVENT, AND HE MAKES IT PERFECTLY EVRYTIME.
IT’S SO EASY AND DELICIOUS!! UMMMMMMMMMMMMM.
I add finely chopped onions, and red peppers to this, its outstanding@

Great to hear!!
This recipe has two different cooking times listed. 30 minutes and then 45-50 minutes. Wonder which is correct?
I baked the corn casserole for 50 minutes and it came out perfect. Depending on your oven, you can always try just 45 minutes.
Can you pre mix an bake the. Next day?
Lol Sorry…..can you pre mic and bake the next day?
Sure!
Option 1 – Assemble and Refrigerate
Combine all ingredients place in your casserole dish. Cover and refrigerate until ready to bake. Let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes prior to baking, then bake as outlined
Option 2: Bake and Reheat
Bake, allow to cool, and then refrigerate. Allow to come to room temp and then heat in the oven uncovered at 350° for 10-15 minutes, until hot and bubbly. If it starts to brown on top, cover with foil.
Yes you can. Wrap it tight in plastic wrap. Take out fridge about 30 minutes before you want to bake. Remove plastic wrap before baking. I just fixed one and put in fridge for tomorrow!
.
I add 2 eggs, slightly beaten to this recipe, Rest of the ingredients the same as stated in recipe.
I had to increase baking time by 20 minutes. Overall, it was very delicious!!
In the ingredients that shows that you drain the corn and in the video you don’t drain it which is it
You drain the whole kernels can.
This might have been good but I watched the video and didn’t drain the corn. Why does the video say not to drain it and the recipe says to drain it??! GRRRR
