Alternate Cooking Techniques

Slow Cooker

  • Spray the crockpot insert with cooking spray or lightly butter it.
  • Combine the creamed corn, canned sweet corn, eggs, ½ cup Ritz crackers, ¼ cup unsalted butter, salt, paprika and black pepper.
  • Cover and cook for 4-6 hours on low.
  • Top with the ritz cracker topping about 30 minutes before it’s done.
  • It will start to pull away from the sides of the slow cooker once it’s done.

How to Store

  • Serve: After baking this Scalloped Corn recipe, don’t leave it at room temperature for more than 2 hours.
  • Store: If you have leftovers, let the corn cool to room temperature then cover the casserole dish or store it in an airtight container in the fridge. It will keep well for 3-5 days.
  • Freeze: Carefully wrapped or sealed in an airtight container you can keep Scalloped Corn Casserole in the freezer for 3 months. Let the frozen corn defrost in the fridge overnight before reheating the corn in the oven.

Variations

  • Crackers: The cracker crumb topping on this recipe works great with Ritz crackers, but you can also try using saltine crackers. Just break up the saltine cracker crumbs and mix them with the butter the same way you would with Ritz crackers. You could also use breadcrumbs in place of any crackers. 
  • Cheese: To make your corn casserole nice and cheesy, try sprinkling some cheddar cheese into the corn mixture. Once the cheese is melted it will make the dish extra gooey and creamy.
  • Other Add-ins: There are plenty of other delicious additions you can make in this easy corn side. Try mixing in some coarsely chopped onion, potatoes, bell pepper, or any other veggies you want to add in. You can also sprinkle some seasonings like garlic salt, onion powder, cayenne pepper, or cumin.

    1. Hi Joel, I’m wondering if the Recipe Card didn’t populate for you? Kosher salt is in the ingredient list and yes 1/2 tsp. and yes, bake at 350 degrees as directed. Maybe refresh your page? Hope you can see it and hope the recipe turns out ok for you 🙂

    1. Serving sizes become an issue because people will have ingredients of different sizes. Packaged products are weighed and measured at the time of creation which makes their measurements accurate. The only way to accurately know the measurements of meals is to weigh and divide.

    1. Oh Oh, I’m sorry you were disappointed. Just curious, did you happen to use frozen corn? That would add liquid content or if you used canned corn, did you drain it well?

  4. Hi. This sounds perfect. Questions… can I make it on a slow cooker? Can I replace whole corn with fresh or frozen? Thanks much!

  6. My casserole seems soupy. I followed the directions so I’m not sure why it is soupy. It’s for a pot luck so I’m not real happy

  9. Sounds amazing! We have always used saltines but going to try with Town House this year. Haven’t tried it yet but I plan to add some sour cream and mayonnaise along with some onion, bacon, parmesan and a little chili powder to make a Mexican street corn version of scalloped corn for Thanksgiving. Praying it goes well lol. Im sure it will.

  10. Hi Sabrina,
    Is it 1/2 a teaspoon or tablespoon of kosher salt?
    As we can’t buy kosher salt here I was wondering how I could convert kosher salt amounts to other salts eg table salt or a coarse grained cooking salt. Do you know?

    Reply

    1. Thanks for catching that. You’ll want to use 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt or you can also use coarse sea sat or Himalayan pink salt. Enjoy!
