    Everyone needs great classic recipes for everyday living but especially around the holidays. This recipe is a staple at my house and it always makes an appearance at my Thanksgiving table. Along with creamy mashed potatoes and creamed spinach. Nothing better than having a bunch of Thanksgiving side dishes at your table. This can also be placed on the list of Christmas side dishes for Christmas dinner.

    How Do You Make Creamed Corn?

     

    Start off by cutting the kernels from the cob and setting them aside. Drizzle some oil into a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the kernels to the skillet and fry for 3-4 minutes. Stir in the fresh garlic, sugar, and butter and cook for 1 minute. Add the all-purpose flour and cook for 2 minutes. Pour in the heavy cream and cook for 10 minutes while stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper and enjoy!

    Top Tips and Recipe Variations

     

    • I used fresh corn for this recipe but if corn isn’t in season you may use canned corn or frozen corn. If using frozen corn, let it thaw at room temperature before cooking it.
    • Do not omit the sugar, it gives it a sweet corn taste but not overly sweet.
    • If you want to spice things up, add one diced jalapeno or 1/2 tsp of cayenne pepper.
    • Add some crispy bacon on top for some crunch.
    • Garnish with fresh parsley or scallions.
