Notes
Make-Ahead Method
This is an easy recipe to make up to 2 days ahead of time. Here’s how:
Method 1: Assemble and Refrigerate
Combine all ingredients except for the cheese and place in casserole dish. Cover with saran wrap and refrigerate until ready to bake. Let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes prior to baking, then bake as outlined
Method 2: Bake and Reheat
Bake covered at 350° for 50 minutes, let it cool, and refrigerate. Add the shredded cheese, cover it, and bake it at 300° for 10 minutes to warm it up. Bake again, uncovered at 350° for 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted. Serve.
Adding Sugar
If you prefer a sweeter corn casserole, you can add up to 2 Tablespoons of granulated sugar to the mix, although the cornbread mix does have some sweetness to it already.
Storing Leftovers
Store in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
You can freeze this for up to three months, but it tastes best when eaten fresh.
