Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cans sweet corn (drained)
  • 1 cup rich white cheddar cheese (shredded) Shred cheese fresh for better melt.
  • 1 cup milk Use full-fat milk for creamier texture.
  • 2 pieces eggs
  • 1 cup buttery crackers (crumbled)
  • Salt and pepper to taste Lightly salt as cheddar and crackers add salt.
  • Optional: green onions or bacon for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a medium casserole dish.
  2. In a large bowl, add the drained sweet corn and shredded white cheddar; toss gently.
  3. Whisk milk and eggs in a measuring cup until smooth, then pour into the corn-cheese mix. Stir until well combined.
  4. Fold in the crumbled buttery crackers and season with salt and pepper; the mixture should look thick but pourable.
  5. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Baking
  1. Bake for 30–35 minutes until the edges are golden and a knife inserted near the center comes out mostly clean.
  2. Let it cool for 5–10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped green onions or crispy bacon if desired.
Serving Ideas
  1. Serve with a simple green salad and pickles for a weeknight dinner.
  2. Pair with scrambled eggs and toast for a brunch spread.
  3. Offer as a creamy side dish next to roasted meats for holiday meals.
  4. Bring it warm to a potluck in a casserole dish; it travels well.

Notes

For a crispier top, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end while watching closely. Can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking.
