What you need to make easy corn casserole

• Whole Kernel Corn. Use canned corn (14-15.25 oz) that has been drained. I prefer a 'no added salt' corn for this recipe as you can always add salt or seasonings on your own.
• Cream Style Corn. Use canned cream style (14-15.25 oz) that has not been drained as the liquid is needed for this recipe.
• Cornbread Mix. You will need an 8.5 ounce box of the cornbread mix of your choice. The ingredients that are used to actually make the cornbread are not needed.
• Butter. Use unsalted butter that has been melted.
• Sour Cream. Plain Greek Yogurt can alternatively be used
• Optional Ingredients Seasonings of your choice. For added moisture you can also add an egg.

More helpful tips for you.

1. Can you use frozen corn instead of canned corn? For the kernel corn, yes as long as you thaw and drain it. The cream corn needs to be canned as it gives moisture to this casserole.
2. My casserole was made in a casserole sized baking dish. For taller servings, you can use an 8x8-inch or 9x9-inch baking dish. Keep in mind that baking times will vary depending on the size of your dish. If you are doubling this recipe, stick to the larger baking dish for more even baking.
3. Can you make this recipe in a slow cooker? Yes! Combine together the ingredients as instructed and transfer them to a prepared slow cooker. You can slow cook the casserole on low for three and a half to four hours or until set.
