‘Amish Crowd-Pleaser’—Just 4 ingredients. I bring this every year and somehow it’s always the first dish gone.

This Amish Holiday Corn Bliss Casserole (often called “Corn Pudding”) is a staple side dish for holiday tables. It’s incredibly simple to prepare, but the combination of creamed corn and sour cream creates a rich, custard-like texture that pairs perfectly with a salty main course like ham or turkey.

Ingredients

How To Make Amish Holiday Corn Bliss Casserole:

Step 1: Prep the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9×9-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2: Combine: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, stir together the 1 can of drained whole kernel corn and the 1 can of creamed corn. Fold in the 1 cup of sour cream and the 1/2 cup of melted butter.

Step 3: Mix and Pour: Stir all the ingredients until the mixture is well blended and the butter is fully incorporated. Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 4: Bake: Bake for 45/50 minutes. You will know it is done when the edges are golden brown and the center is set (it shouldn’t be sloshing, but a slight jiggle is fine).

Step 5: Cool and Serve: Let the casserole rest for 5/10 minutes before serving. This cooling time allows the pudding to “set up” so it’s easy to scoop.

Variations to Try

• Add a Little Sweetness: Many Amish versions add 1/2 cup of cornmeal or Jiffy corn muffin mix to give it more of a “cornbread” structure.

• Make it Spicy: Stir in a small can of diced green chiles for a Southwestern twist.

• Cheese Topping: Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar over the top during the last 10 minutes of baking.
