Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (15.25 oz/432 g) whole kernel corn
- 2 cans (14.75 oz/418 g) cream-style corn
- 5 eggs
- ½ cup (120 ml) milk
- ¼ cup (50 g) white sugar
- 4 tbsps (32 g) cornstarch
- ⅓ cup (76 g) butter, melted
Instructions
- Preparation: Position oven rack centrally and heat to 400°F (204°C). Thoroughly spray a 2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray to prevent adherence.
- Mixture Creation: Whisk eggs until frothy, then smoothly integrate granulated sugar, whole milk, and melted unsalted butter. Sprinkle cornstarch and whisk vigorously to eliminate potential lumps, ensuring a seamless consistency.
- Ingredient Incorporation: Gently fold whole kernel corn and creamed corn into the liquid mixture, distributing ingredients evenly throughout the base.
- Baking Process: Pour the corn pudding mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it uniformly. Bake for 60 minutes until the surface develops a rich golden-brown hue and the center maintains a subtle tremor when gently nudged.
- Resting and Serving: After removing from the oven, allow the pudding to stabilize for 10-15 minutes, enabling it to set and facilitating easier portioning. This brief cooling period enhances the dish’s texture and makes serving more convenient.
Notes
- Prevent Lumps: Whisk cornstarch thoroughly to eliminate any potential clumps, ensuring a silky smooth texture throughout the pudding.
- Achieve Golden Perfection: Bake until the top turns a beautiful golden brown, indicating a perfectly caramelized surface with rich, deep flavors.
- Rest and Set: Allow the pudding to rest 10-15 minutes after baking, helping it firm up and making slicing and serving much easier.
- Spray Matters: Use cooking spray generously to coat the entire casserole dish, preventing the corn pudding from sticking and ensuring easy removal.
