A cozy, creamy cornbread recipe blending creamed corn into the batter for moist, tender, and flavorful comfort food perfect for family gatherings or weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (can swap for gluten-free flour blend)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup buttermilk (or plain yogurt thinned with milk)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • ¼ cup sour cream (optional but highly recommended)
  • 1 cup creamed corn (canned, homemade, or frozen)
  • Optional: 1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • Optional: Chopped jalapeños or green chilies
  • Optional: Shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease your baking pan with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until no lumps remain.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs with buttermilk, melted butter, and sour cream until smooth. Add honey or maple syrup if using.
  4. Gently fold creamed corn into the wet mixture until combined.
  5. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold gently with a spatula until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Add cheese or jalapeños now if desired.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool on a rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing to allow the cornbread to set.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for better rise. Mix gently to avoid tough cornbread. Keep an eye on the last 5 minutes of baking to prevent over-browning; tent with foil if needed. Let cool before slicing to keep crumb intact.
