Crockpot Cream Corn - sweet corn kernels that are buttery, rich and creamy! You won't believe how simple it is to make with pantry ingredients. Slow Cooker Creamed Corn does not get easier or better than this!
Crockpot Cream Cheese Corn
The first time I made this recipe for crockpot cream corn we grilled Tri-Tip and had a fresh fruit salad. And Dan went back for seconds.... for the corn!
But who was I to complain, I was standing in the kitchen eating it with a spoon!
It's a great side dish for almost any meal - meatloaf, ribs or grilled chicken. And perfect for your holiday meal!
THIS is an easy, wonderful side dish! Super simple and ridiculously good.
Ingredients
For the exact measurements, please refer to the printable recipe card at the bottom of this post.
- frozen corn - crunchy and fresh it's the next best thing to fresh corn!
- cream cheese - will help make this casserole cheesy and rich
- evaporated milk - easy pantry ingredients, though you can certainly substitute milk.
- butter - brings it all together
- salt, pepper and sugar - perfectly season this side dish.
Instructions
This is an overview; for detailed instructions, just scroll down to the bottom!
- Add the corn to the crockpot.
- Cube the butter and cream cheese, add it on top of the corn.
- Pour in the milk.
- Sprinkle with seasoning
- Cover and cook for 2-3 hours
Surprisingly canned creamed corn doesn't contain cream! It has corn, salt, water and a thickening agent - no milk or cream!
You bet! Though this recipe calls for frozen corn, you can substitute fresh corn or canned.
Yes, store leftovers in a buttered casserole dish. On day two, sprinkle with brown sugar and heat until bubbly. Tuck it under the broiler - oh my! Ridiculously good!
The brick of cream cheese thickens it up so nicely! After it's done cooking, give it a good stir. As the cream cheese dispurses, it will thicken the casserole.
