Following through on a new years resolution

One of the few creative things I can do is cook and bake, and tend to make things up as I go along. Here is my attempt to document my creativity.

Corn Pudding


Oh my goodness I am so far behind! Well this recipe I just made last night. Growing up my best friend's mom Pat made this corn pudding during the holidays, and I absolutely loved it. I looked forward to it each season. Years later I asked for the recipe and I was so surprised how simple it is, and now I always make it during the holidays as well. It is the same recipe with the exception I added a little flour to give it some body, and some garlic for a touch more flavor.

Prep time - 10 minutes or less, cook time about 30-40
Serves about 6-8, or a crowd for a potluck Thanksgiving

2 cans creamed corn
1 can regular can corn - juices and all, do not drain
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
1/2 tsp of baking soda
4 garlic cloves
salt and pepper
PAM cooking spray
9 x 13 baking dish

Preheat oven to 365. In a large bowl, open up the cans and dump in the corn. Put the butter in the microwave and allow to melt for a minute. In the meantime, mince 4 cloves of garlic. Pour the melted butter into the bowl, and also add in the garlic. add in the flour, eggs, sugar, and baking soda. Crack in some pepper and add salt. Mix with a whisk until fully incorporated. Spray you baking dish with Pam cooking spray. Pour mixture in. Bake in the oven, uncovered, for 30 minutes or until browned on top. I've also had success with this baking at 350 degrees for 50 minutes as well.
