Easy Corn Casserole

Easy Corn Casserole is as simple as that. You pour all the ingredients into a bowl, mix, bake, and boom—you’re done! It’s a holiday staple in my house, especially at Thanksgiving, but honestly, I’d eat it any time of year. Made with pantry staples like corn, cornbread mix, sour cream, butter, and cheese—what’s not to love? This is the easy version, but feel free to get creative! Add chopped jalapeños for a little kick, or throw in some crispy bacon for that salty crunch. Whether you’re in a rush or just craving something comforting, this casserole is your go-to for a quick, crowd-pleasing side dish.

Easy Peasy…..

Honestly, it doesn’t get easier than this! You just plop all the ingredients into a bowl, give it a quick stir, pour it into your baking pan, and bake. That’s it. No fuss, no fancy steps—just mix, pour, bake, and you’ve got a golden, cheesy corn casserole that tastes like you spent hours on it (but you didn’t). It’s perfect for when you need a quick side dish that still feels like a treat. Simple, delicious, and basically foolproof.

Double it, trust me..

This recipe makes an 8×8 dish, which is perfect for smaller gatherings, but for Thanksgiving, our table grows bigger every year—adding more family and friends to our yearly traditions. It’s so heartwarming to see how the family grows, and it makes the day even more special. With about 21 people on the guest list this year, I’ll definitely be doubling the recipe!

Doubling it is super easy—just make sure you use a larger baking dish. And keep in mind, with the bigger batch, you’ll need to extend the baking time. Instead of the usual 45 minutes, you’ll want to bake it for about 75-80 minutes (Around 1hr 15 minutes). To make sure it’s fully cooked, insert a knife straight into the center of the casserole. If it comes out clean, it’s done; if it’s still a bit wet, just give it a little more time. You’ll know when it’s perfect—golden on top and ready to be devoured
