What Makes Creamed Corn Great For Thanksgiving

You already know that I love to keep it easy, but I also can’t imagine our Thanksgiving table without corn. I like to add some color through our vegetables. It’s easy to find “green” recipes, but I love that I can bring some yellow to our table with corn.

What I love most about this recipe is how you don’t have to to thaw or microwave the corn. You throw the frozen corn onto your stove top and bring it to a boil with the cream.

At the end, you put it under the broiler, in the oven. Just a few minutes under the broiler creates a delicious browned parmesan crust on top. Then it’s creamy and rich in the center. You’ll love it!

How To Make This Easy Creamed Corn Recipe

In a small pot, melt 4 Tablespoons butter and stir in the flour, over medium heat. Do not brown off. Remove from the heat once finished and set aside.

Place corn in a medium pot with cream and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and simmer for five minutes.

Stir in the salt and sugar, then add your butter mixture.

Cook until it thickens slightly.

You’ll notice it thicken and look creamier.

Place the corn mixture into an oven-proof dish.

Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and dot with butter.

Brown under a low broiler, in the oven, until light brown on top. It turns brown quickly – only a few minutes are needed. Serve immediately.
