Why You’ll Love This Recipe

This Scalloped Corn and Broccoli is a comforting, cheesy baked side dish that combines the natural sweetness of corn with the earthy bite of broccoli. It’s creamy, simple to prepare, and absolutely perfect for family dinners, holiday tables, or anytime you want a cozy veggie-packed casserole. Just toss the ingredients together and let the oven do the magic!

Ingredients

  • 1 can (14.75–15 oz) creamed corn
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 5 oz frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and drained

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick spray or a bit of butter.
  2. Mix the base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamed corn, beaten eggs, sugar, flour, and salt. Stir well until smooth and blended.
  3. Add the good stuff: Fold in the shredded Cheddar cheese and the chopped broccoli until evenly combined.
  4. Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the top is golden and the edges are bubbling.
  5. Serve warm: Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Pairs wonderfully with roasted meats, grilled chicken, or as part of a holiday spread.

Recipe Notes

  • Frozen Broccoli Tips: For the best texture, thaw and drain the broccoli well before adding to the mix. You can also use fresh broccoli that’s lightly steamed and chopped.
  • Make It Creamier: For a richer version, add 2 tablespoons of sour cream or cream cheese to the mixture.
  • Cheese Variations: Sharp Cheddar adds a bold flavor, but you can swap in Colby Jack, mozzarella, or a blend of cheeses for a different twist.
