Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh or frozen corn (thawed if frozen)

1 cup sour cream

1 cup grated cheddar cheese (divided)

1/2 cup honey

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 cup cornmeal

1/2 cup chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Greasing a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray will ensure the casserole doesn’t stick during baking.

    Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, sugar, eggs, sour cream, and vanilla extract until well combined.

      Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. This will add a lovely depth of flavor to your casserole.

        Blend the Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix — a few lumps are okay!

          Add the Corn and Cheese: Fold in the corn and 3/4 cup of the grated cheddar cheese to the batter. This adds moisture and richness to the casserole.

            Pour into Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Top with the remaining 1/4 cup of grated cheddar cheese for a deliciously cheesy crust.

              Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-40 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

                Cool & Serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. If desired, garnish with chopped green onions for an added burst of color and flavor.

                  Enjoy: Serve warm as a side dish, perfect for barbecues, potlucks, or family dinners!
