Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1 cup half and half
  • 1 can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 can cream-style sweet corn
  • salt & pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium low heat. Remove the skillet from heat. When the butter's cooled, whisk in the flour until smooth and evenly incorporated. 
    1/2 cup butter, 1/4 cup flour
  • Whisk in the sugar, eggs, and half & half- again until evenly incorporated. 
    1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 eggs beaten, 1 cup half and half
  • Stir in both kinds of corn, until evenly combined. Season with salt & pepper, to taste.
    1 can whole kernel corn, drained, 1 can cream-style sweet corn, salt & pepper, to taste
  • Transfer the mixture to an 8x8" baking dish, and use the back of the spoon to smooth out evenly. 
  • Bake at 350 degrees for an hour and fifteen minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the casserole comes out clean, and the casserole is lightly browned on top.
  • Remove the dish from the oven, and let it rest for 5 minutes. Serve while still warm. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Don't use frozen or fresh corn for the canned whole kernel corn. It won't give you the right consistency.
  • Make sure you drain the whole kernel corn.
  • Don't skip letting the pudding rest. It will firm up a bit as it rests.
