Creamed Corn
I admit I remember loving the creamed corn that came out of a can. Little did I know that canned cream corn doesn’t even contain cream! I guess all the liquid counted as the creaminess?!? I wanted to make a creamed corn with a little more substance and density, and actually have some cream in the recipe! This is one of the BEST tasting creamed corn recipes you will ever try, this I can guarantee. Everyone who has ever tried it asked for the recipe and now I can share it with everyone at once! 🙂
Creamed Corn Ingredients
You will notice there is cream as one of the ingredients in my recipe, which is fitting since this is a Creamed Corn recipe! I also used frozen corn. Yes, you can use fresh or canned if you want, however, I can’t guarantee perfect results.
How to Make Creamed Corn

I love cream corn it so good
Do you have a recipe for corn pudding? not with any type of corn bread in it, more like a custard>
Use oregano instead of basil. Gives corn a great flavor!
Do you have crock pot Mac and cheese
Interesting. I was thinking it would be good garnished with chopped cilantro. Maybe, the garnish may depend on what the main meal is.
Sounds yummy. My husband always loved this
