Jalapeños Corn Casserole- A flavorful twist on  corn casserole  with garlic , jalapeños , bell pepper and onion – So uplifting, satisfying and a must for your thanksgiving table.

Jalapeños Corn Casserole

When I think of corn casserole, I think of THE ultimate comfort food, sure they taste good, but there is something more alluring about this casserole- something uplifting, satisfying and pleasurable to the soul and stomach.

These  are just a few of my thoughts about corn casserole, coupled with the thoughts of hundreds of people that have had the pleasure of digging in.

I usually make this during the holidays – when calories don’t count …(that is what I say to anyone who starts mentioning calories). By the way I lightened it  a bit with less butter and no cheese.

This casserole is a holiday favorite of mind -it’s always a big hit! The kids really love it…and adults fight over it too- with so much goodies how can you turn it down!

It packs so many flavor and lends itself to so many variations – with so little work. I like my corn casserole with a southwest spin on it – chopped onions, Jalapenos, onions, bell pepper, and cayenne pepper.

Do double this recipe, if you are cooking for a large crowd.

Throw some prepared sausage, bacon, or prosciutto on top, for those of you that want protein and salty garnish.

Notes

  1. For heat you can use 1 teaspoons cayenne pepper and omit Jalapeños  entirely

  • 1⁄2 cup  yellow cornmeal
  • 1/4 -1⁄3 cup  granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1⁄2teaspoon  salt

    Hello! The recipe calls for 1/3 cup of butter. What do I do with the rest of the butter after using 2 tablespoons?

      Oops, you add it at step 4 with the cornbread mix, corn, and other ingredients. Thanks for catching that, I’ll fix it.

    I love This recipe so much! Will definitely make it every year. My family devoured it. I put 1/2tsp of cayenne and 2 jalepenos. Next year I plan to use 1tsp of cayenne and same amount of jalapeños .

    This a great recipe, my family likes it better than any other corn casserole recipe. I sometimes leave out the jalapenos (depending on who is eating) but it is better with. Thanks for this great recipe.
