Ingredients
Scale
For the Casserole:
- 1 (15-ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 (15-ounce) can cream-style corn
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 (8½-ounce) box Jiffy corn muffin mix
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 2-quart casserole dish with butter or nonstick cooking spray to ensure the soufflé doesn’t stick. - Combine Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained whole kernel corn, cream-style corn, beaten egg, melted butter, sour cream, and Jiffy corn muffin mix. Mix until well combined and smooth. - Pour into Casserole Dish:
Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared casserole dish. Use a spatula to smooth the top and ensure it is evenly distributed. - Bake:
Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until the soufflé is set but still soft and slightly jiggly in the center. If using a shallow dish, check for doneness closer to 45 minutes. The top should be golden and slightly crispy. - Rest and Serve:
Once the soufflé is done baking, let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. This allows the soufflé to firm up slightly and makes it easier to serve. Enjoy!
Notes
- For a more indulgent version, add a cup of shredded cheese (cheddar or a cheese blend) to the mixture for a cheesy twist.
- If you prefer a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or diced jalapeños to the mixture for extra flavor.
- You can make the soufflé ahead of time, refrigerate it, and bake it when ready. Just be sure to add a few extra minutes to the baking time if it’s cold from the fridge.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or green onions for added color and flavor.
- This soufflé is great as a side dish for any protein, like roasted chicken, turkey, or grilled fish.
