Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 (15-ounce) cans whole kernel sweet corn, thoroughly drained
  • 1 (14.75-ounce) can creamed corn
  • 1 (8.5-ounce) package cornbread mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup honey, for glaze
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, for glaze
  • 1 tablespoon packed light brown sugar, for glaze
  • 1 tablespoon water, for glaze
  • Optional: 1 diced bell pepper
  • Optional: 1 cup diced zucchini
  • Optional garnish: finely chopped pecans or a sprinkle of flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Thoroughly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Drain whole kernel corn well. Melt 1/2 cup unsalted butter and let cool slightly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk eggs until combined. Add the cooled melted butter, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt; whisk until uniform.
  3. Stir in the drained whole kernel sweet corn and the can of creamed corn. If desired for a fall harvest version, stir in optional diced bell pepper and diced zucchini now.
  4. Sprinkle the cornbread mix over the wet ingredients. Gently fold until just combined, being careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are fine.
  5. Pour the batter into the greased baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the center is set and a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. About 10 minutes before the casserole is done, combine 1/2 cup honey, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon light brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low, stirring until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Bring to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened and glossy. Remove from heat.
  7. Immediately after removing the hot casserole from the oven, generously drizzle the warm honey glaze over the top. Allow the casserole to rest and cool in the baking dish on a wire rack for at least 15-20 minutes. Garnish with optional finely chopped pecans or a pinch of flaky sea salt before slicing and serving warm.
