    Cook's Tips

    Ensure that you properly grease the casserole dish, which will help prevent the corn casserole from sticking and make for easier cleanup.

    You'll need to let the butter cool slightly in order to keep it from scrambling the eggs when you add them to the mixture.

    If you enjoy corn casserole with a dense texture, leave out one or all of the eggs.

    If you find that your corn casserole is browning too quickly in the oven, tent it with foil for the last 15-20 minutes of baking.

    For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free cornbread mix in place of the Jiffy corn muffin mix.

    Fold in chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or thyme.

    Stir in diced cooked bacon or crumbled sausage.

    Add a layer of crushed tortilla chips, Ritz crackers, or corn chips on top before baking for extra crunch.
