Both whole kernel corn and creamy corn are combined with sour cream, an egg, onion, corn bread mix, cheddar cheese, and jalapenos for a creamy, cheesy, sweet and spicy Cheesy Jalapeno Corn Casserole. This is a side dish that is guaranteed to make your mouth water!

This is a recipe I added to our Thanksgiving menu this year along with Cheesy Green Bean Casserole and Broccoli Casserole. It was such a hit and so easy to make, I think it will become a weeknight favorite.

Cheesy Jalapeno Corn Casserole couldn’t be easier to make. It’s a dump all ingredients in a bowl and stir kind of recipe. The casserole is put in the oven to bake and once it is almost done, I add more cheese on top. Everything is better with a warm and melted layer of cheese on top.
A carton of sour cream makes this casserole really creamy and rich.

I added fresh jalapenos for some spice. You can’t see them in the pictures, but I promise you they are there. You could use pickled jalapenos instead or a small can of diced green chilies. Or just leave them out. It’s still a delicious casserole with no peppers at all.

Cheesy Jalapeno Corn Casserole makes a delicious southern side for a holiday meal or a regular weeknight meal.

Ingredients
Steps
- 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish. (or you can use a smaller one but you will have to cook it longer.)
- 2
In a large bowl stir together corn, sour cream, and egg.
- 3
Mix in onion, jalapenos, garlic powder, paprika, salt, melted butter, corn muffin mix, and 1 cup cheddar cheese.
- 4
Pour into prepared casserole dish.
- 5
Bake for 30 minutes. Sprinkle cheese on top and continue to cook until set in the middle, about 15 to 20 more minutes. It is done when there is only a slight jiggle in the middle when you shake the dish.
Notes
If you want to use fresh corn in this recipe, use 1 1/2 cups of fresh corn kernels in place of the 11-ounce can of corn.
