Ingredients
  

For the Casserole
  • 2 cups Fresh Corn Kernels Adds delightful sweetness and texture; great for summertime dishes.
  • 1 cup Creamed Corn Brings moisture and creaminess to enhance the dish's richness.
  • 1 cup Sour Cream Contributes tanginess; Greek yogurt makes a perfect substitute for a lighter option.
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese Offers a savory, gooey layer; feel free to swap with Monterey Jack for a milder flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Honey Sweetens the casserole beautifully; maple syrup is a lovely alternative if you're feeling adventurous.
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, melted Infuses the dish with richness; using salted butter will increase the sodium content.
  • 1 cup Cornmeal Provides structure and creates a tender texture in each serving.
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder Ensures a fluffy texture; be sure to check the expiration date for best results.
  • 1 tsp Salt Enhances all flavors; adjust if using salted butter to keep it balanced.
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper Adds a touch of mild heat; adjust according to your taste preference.
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder Elevates the savory depth; fresh minced garlic can also work for added zing.
  • 2 large Beaten Eggs Binds everything together for a moist and fluffy finish.
For Garnish
  • Chopped Chives or Parsley Offers a burst of fresh color and flavor to the top of your casserole.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh corn kernels, creamed corn, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, honey, and melted butter. Stir until well blended and creamy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly mixed.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients and fold them together until just combined.
  5. Add the beaten eggs to the mixture and fold gently until incorporated.
  6. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish and pour the corn mixture into it, spreading evenly.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the top turns golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Remove from the oven, allow to cool for about 10 minutes, then garnish with chopped chives or parsley.
