Ingredients

• 1 (15 ounce) can creamed corn
• 1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
• 1 (8 ounce) package corn muffin mix (such as Jiffy)
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8 inch baking dish thoroughly to prevent sticking.
2. Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamed corn and the drained whole kernel corn.
3. Step 3: Add the corn muffin mix to the bowl and stir to combine.
4. Step 4: Stir in the sour cream, then pour in the melted butter and drizzle the honey over the mixture.

7. Step 7: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
8. Step 8: Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If the top browns too quickly, tent with foil to prevent burning.
9. Step 9: Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
