Cheesy Jalapeno Corn Casserole

This is a recipe I added to our Thanksgiving menu this year along with Cheesy Green Bean Casserole and Broccoli Casserole. It was such a hit and so easy to make, I think it will become a weeknight favorite.

Cheesy Jalapeno Corn Casserole

Cheesy Jalapeno Corn Casserole couldn’t be easier to make. It’s a dump all ingredients in a bowl and stir kind of recipe. The casserole is put in the oven to bake and once it is almost done, I add more cheese on top. Everything is better with a warm and melted layer of cheese on top.

A carton of sour cream makes this casserole really creamy and rich.

I added fresh jalapenos for some spice. You can’t see them in the pictures, but I promise you they are there. You could use pickled jalapenos instead or a small can of diced green chilies. Or just leave them out. It’s still a delicious casserole with no peppers at all.

Recipe

Cheesy Jalapeno Corn Casserole

Cheesy Jalapeno Corn Casserole combines both whole kernel corn and creamed corn with sour cream, jalapenos, and cornbread mix.Tastes so good!

  • Serves 8 servings
  • Prep 10 minutes
  • Cook 45 minutes
  • Total 55 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 (11-ounce) can corn (drained well)
  • 1 (14.75-ounce) can creamed corn
  • 1 (8-ounce) container sour cream
  • 1 large egg (lightly beaten)
  • 1 small onion (finely chopped)
  • 1-2 jalapenos (finely chopped)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
  • 1 (7.5-oz) package corn muffin mix (I use Martha White)
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (divided)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish. (or you can use a smaller one but you will have to cook it longer.)

  2. 2

    In a large bowl stir together corn, sour cream, and egg.

  3. 3

    Mix in onion, jalapenos, garlic powder, paprika, salt, melted butter, corn muffin mix, and 1 cup cheddar cheese.

  4. 4

    Pour into prepared casserole dish.

  5. 5

    Bake for 30 minutes. Sprinkle cheese on top and continue to cook until set in the middle, about 15 to 20 more minutes. It is done when there is only a slight jiggle in the middle when you shake the dish.

Notes

If you want to use fresh corn in this recipe, use 1 1/2 cups of fresh corn kernels in place of the 11-ounce can of corn.
