The other day I was looking through an old church cookbook that my great aunt gave to me. My great aunt was this incredible woman who I adored like a grandmother. She was the oldest child of my great grandmother’s sort of second family. After losing her husband just 2 months after she arrived in the United States, my great grandmother reluctantly decided to stay in this country and help care for a sick relative with my then 12 year old grandmother. Can you imagine? Being a widowed single mom in a country that was completely foreign to you? Thank goodness I come from a long line of amazingly strong women because she decided to stay. If she wouldn’t have, I would be here and I wouldn’t have this recipe to share. This Baked Cream Casserole is the type of recipe that has been around for ages and has been passed from family member to family member. It has so many different iterations, so many spins on the jiffy corn casserole, if you look for it on the internet. But this is the one that came out of our family’s church cookbook and it is a winner!
INGREDIENTS FOR EASY CORN CASSEROLE
As I mentioned, this recipe has just a few simple ingredients and it is so easy to throw together.
butter eggs sour cream can of corn can of cream style corn box of muffin mix water
Seriously could not be more simple. And I’m not lying when I say that just looking at those ingredients is making me drool. This corn pudding casserole is just so delicious.

Do you see how easy this baked cream corn casserole is? It is no wonder that it is a recipe passed down through the generations and worthy of a spot in the church cook book.
