Ingredients
- Corn kernels
- 3 cups, fresh or frozen
- Milk
- 1 cup
- Eggs
- 3 large, beaten
- Unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup, melted
- Granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup
- Cornmeal
- 1/2 cup
- All-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup
- Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon, freshly ground
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 2-quart baking dish.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs and melted butter until well combined and creamy.
- Pour in the milk, then gently fold in the corn kernels, mixing until just combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, salt, and black pepper until evenly blended.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until you achieve a smooth and cohesive batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown and slightly puffed.
- Allow the pudding to cool for about 10 minutes before serving, which enhances both flavor and texture.
Tips

- You can mix in 1 cup of shredded cheese for a savory twist.
- If using fresh corn, scrape the kernels off the cob for the best flavor.
