How to Make a Corn Casserole in the Crock Pot Like a Pro

A few simple tricks from Food Network Kitchen turn this easy crock recipe into a crowd-pleaser you’ll make on repeat.

Use full-fat sour cream. Low- and no-fat dairy can make the consistency of your crock pot corn casserole runny and less scoopable. Our recipe developers recommend using full-fat sour cream for the best texture and flavor.

Look for no-salt-added corn. Some canned veggies contain a lot of sodium, so the Food Network Kitchen team recommends using no-salt-added corn kernels to keep this crock pot recipe balanced.

Measure equal-parts flour and cornmeal. The ratio of yellow cornmeal to all-purpose flour helps the corn casserole soak up the creamy butter and sour cream without losing its structure, so it’s easy to cut and serve.

Try other cheeses. Our recipe developers love how the tang of sharp Cheddar offsets the creaminess of this easy corn casserole recipe, but you can swap in shredded Monterey Jack, Gouda, Provolone, or other cheeses.

Let it rest. Waiting 10 minutes before you remove the lid lets the steam subside, so the crock pot corn casserole keeps its shape and stays moist as you dig in.

How to Reheat the Crock Pot Corn Casserole

One of the best things about this easy crock recipe is you can make it in advance. Let the corn casserole cool completely before storing it covered in the fridge for up to TK days. Reheat it on low for an hour and a half before serving.
