The cake will appear spongy, so I use a thermometer to check that the center is 160°
#CORN CASSEROLE WITH JIFFY MIX FULL#
That recipe uses creamed corn and canned corn but I never seem to have those on hand so I played around and tried using frozen or fresh corn to get the same effect. We loved the sweet corn cake at El Torito and Chi Chi’s Mexican restaurants and wanted to find a copycat recipe. The original recipe is one my mom found years ago. Crispy crunchy edges on the outside and a soft souffle-like consistency on the inside make this a standout side dish.Īs fancy as one might like to get during the holidays, there is always something grounding about serving a comfort classic. The sweetness from the Jiffy Mix along with the tartness from the sour cream brings a delicious flavor balance as well as an incredible texture combination. One of the best things about this tender and flavorful baked corn casserole is that it really is simple comfort food but can be used to accompany anything from fancy turkey or prime ribs but also a juicy steak or weeknight tacos.
This is a great side dish for Tri Tip Tacos but if you prefer a more traditional corn recipe be sure and check out our Homemade Creamed Corn. It is the perfect scoop-and-share accompaniment for any main meal! A sweet and savory comfort dish baked until golden brown. Jiffy Corn Casserole is a simple and delicious holiday favorite.
