Old Fashioned recipes are some of my favorites, especially this creamed corn. There aren’t many ingredients, but the flavor is nothing short of amazing. This homemade creamed corn is better than the canned stuff, in my opinion. It’s made from scratch, has a thicker creamy sauce, and requires little effort and time.
Creamed corn originated in Native American cuisine, which was more of a creamy soup. Nowadays, you’ll find creamed corn that is a little soupy or some homemade versions that are a bit thicker and heartier. This recipe is the homemade Southern-style creamed corn I grew up eating.
For this recipe, I don’t break down the kernels, and I cook it in under 20 minutes. If you’d prefer more broken-down corn, blend half the corn in a blender or food processor with about half of the milk. Then, proceed with the recipe.
