Corn Pudding

When I was at the doctor's office last week, I was passing the time looking at a magazine when a couple of recipes caught my attention. This was one of them...

I took a photo of the page, then handwrote it later at home so I could tape it to my cabinet near the stove. Yeah, very high tech, I know...

This would be one of the "new" recipes I'm trying for today's family gathering...

Here are the ingredients...

I don't have a photo of the final product just yet. This post will be updated later. I'm going to have TC make this since it's pretty easy.

TC dumped all of the ingredients into a bowl and whisked it all up.

The recipe called for only one cup of corn muffin mix. In the future, I will double it so that the pudding won't be as "wet". I have a thing against wet and soft things. I believe the pudding will be more "cake" like and firm if I use two cups.

I didn't have a 9x9 baking dish so I used two oblong Corningwares. One for us and one for the party.

I poured it all into one dish at first, but then decided on splitting it up so it wouldn't be as mushy because of the high walls of the dish. I wanted the pudding to be at a more shallow level.

Mmmm, the smell when it came out of the oven....

Corn Pudding
(recipe from San Diego Home/Garden Lifestles, page 108, May 2013)

Ingredients:
2 cans whole kernel corn with juice
2 cans cream style corn
1 cup corn bread mix
8 tbsp butter, melted
1/2 cup sour cream
2 eggs beaten
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp sugar

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 350F
• In a large bowl, combine all ingredients
• Mix well and pour into a 9" square baking dish (I dont' have one so I'm using 2 oblong dishes)
• Bake 1 hour uncovered until pudding sets and is golden brown on top

I have to time this right because I need the oven later on for the baked Vietnamese pork chops and also the pigs in a blanket (pre-wrapped and ready to pop in).... done!

I imagine you could kick this up a bit by putting in diced jalapenos, or maybe some shredded pepper jack cheese. Next time!
