Easy and delicious jiffy corn pudding
If youโre reading this, youโre in for an absolute treat. This corn pudding recipe is one of my favorite recipes. It makes this perfect side dish, but it’s also great on its own as a little cozy snack.
Corn pudding is a classically southern dish that’s made with jiffy corn muffin mix as well as corn kernels, cream-style corn, yogurt, butter, and honey (optional). Once combined, these ingredients wind up creating a light, moist, fluffy texture (more so than cornbread). In fact, the final texture is like that of a soufflรฉ.
I love to make this recipe in the fall and winter, and though many use it as a side dish for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner, I think itโs perfect any day of the season.
Ingredients in this corn pudding recipe
With an ingredient list filled with these tasty items, you can probably already tell that it’s going to be good! Here’s everything you’ll need:
- Egg: First up, you will need one egg. You can use a regular or a large egg. The egg is going to help the jiffy mix combine well with the other ingredients.
- Muffin mix: Next, you need 1 8.5oz box of Jiffy corn muffin mix (not Jiffy cornbread mix). This is going to help us create the desired texture. Don’t worry, it wonโt dry out the pudding!
- Corn: Following the muffin mix, use 1 15oz can of whole corn kernels. Be sure to drain before adding to the mix.
- Cream-style corn: Follow the regular corn kernels with 1 15oz can of cream-style corn. This is also going to contribute to the texture.
- Yogurt: Then, add 2/3 cup of full-fat plain Greek yogurt. Not only does this taste delicious, but it also adds a nice bit of protein to the dish.
- Butter: Finally, add half a cup (1 stick) of melted butter. This is going to create the most delicious flavor.
- Toppings: When it comes to topping this recipe, you can do so with extra butter or a honey drizzle. Yes, you can also use both toppings!
Tools needed to make this jiffy corn pudding recipe
To make this jiffy corn casserole recipe, you will need a handful of kitchen tools. Before you begin, gather the following:
- 9×9 casserole dish
- Nonstick spray or butter (to grease the dish)
- Large mixing bowl
- Whisk
- Stirring utensil
- Measuring cups: 1/2 cup, 2/3 cup
How to make corn pudding casserole
When a recipe only requires one mixing bowl, I take that as a sign that it’s going to be a simple prep process! That rings true with this dish.
To begin, preheat the oven to 350ยฐF and grease a 9×9 baking dish.
Then, beat the egg in a large bowl.
Add the Jiffy mix, whole kernel corn, creamed corn, Greek yogurt, and melted butter. Stir until everything is combined.
Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean and the pudding is light golden brown on top.
Serve with more butter and/or a drizzle of honey!
What goes well with corn pudding?
As if corn pudding wasn’t awesome enough on its own, it pairs splendidly with so many types of main courses! Enjoy your pudding alongside anything from chicken or ham to steak or turkey! If you’re wondering about additional sides, you’ll find a list of ideas toward the end of this recipe.
Storing leftovers
Leftover Jiffy corn pudding should be transferred to an airtight container and stored in the refrigerator. Be sure to stick it in the fridge before it sits out for too long. For the best flavor, enjoy it within about 3 days. It’s easiest to reheat leftovers in the microwave, though they can of course be reheated in the oven as well.
Recipe Tips
Can I use frozen corn?
Frozen corn can work in this recipe if it’s thawed before using. However, I do recommend sticking to canned corn for the best results.
What is the difference between cornbread and corn pudding?
While cornbread has an almost cake-like texture, corn pudding is much lighter and has more of a soufflรฉ texture. They both taste delicious, but you may find that corn pudding is even richer.
Is corn pudding supposed to be jiggly?
Yes, corn pudding should have a slight jiggle. Youโll know itโs done when the edges are golden brown and the center of the baking dish is maybe a tad jiggly. Although, while the center may be jiggly, a toothpick should still come out clean.
What is another name for corn pudding?
Corn pudding has many different name variations including Jiffy corn pudding, corn pudding casserole, and even just corn casserole. You may also hear it referred to as corn soufflรฉ or corn pudding soufflรฉ.

Another 5 star recipe from Erin!! I am gluten free, so I swapped in 8.5 oz King Arthur’s gluten free cornbread mix in place of Jiffy and it was a hit! No one knew it was gluten free which is a win in my book ๐ this will definitely become a regular for our Thanksgiving meal. Thanks for another crowd pleaser!
