You guys. This slow cooker corn pudding might just be my new favorite Thanksgiving recipe…like, ever!

Loaded with corn, a little sweet, a little salty, a little tangy, and a whole lot of creamy. This is definitely going to be a favorite at the Thanksgiving table!

What is corn pudding?

Corn pudding is a classic holiday dish! Although pudding does imply “dessert”, and corn pudding is sweet, this pudding is a savory dish made up of creamed corn, cornbread mix, and other ingredients.

Corn pudding is similar to corn casserole in ingredients (cornbread mix, corn, sour cream, butter), but the texture is slightly different. A corn casserole has more structure (like a loose cornbread.) Corn pudding, on the other hand, has a smoother, creamier, more custard-like texture…hence the word pudding in the name!

Ingredients

This simple list of ingredients comes together to make a flavorful holiday side dish!

• Cream-Style Corn – makes the pudding ultra creamy and provides a sweet corn flavor.
• Sweet Corn – adds a pop of texture and sweetness.
• Unsalted Butter – gives the pudding even more moisture and richness.
• Sour Cream and Cream Cheese – provide a tangy flavor and creamy, rich texture.
• Sharp Cheddar Cheese – adds a sharp, cheesy flavor to balance out the richness of the other ingredients. Also helps to create that ooey-gooey texture.
• Buttermilk – melts into the other ingredients to form a delicious creamy texture.
• Eggs – gives the other ingredients some structure to achieve that pudding-like texture.
• Cornbread Mix – our base! I use Jiffy cornbread mix, but other brands will work as well!
• Granulated Sugar – adds just a touch more sweetness to enhance the corn flavor.
• Salt and Pepper – cuts the sweetness and adds a touch of spice.
