Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh corn kernels, drained
  • 1 cup cornbread mix (natural)
  • 1 cup creamy plant-based cheese
  • 1 cup plant-based milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
  • 1/2 cup sweet onion, diced
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by draining fresh corn kernels and chopping your onion finely. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) so everything is ready when the mixture comes together.
  2. Mix the Base: In a large bowl, combine the cornbread mix, plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, and diced onion. Stir gently until everything is well incorporated and no dry lumps remain.
  3. Add Cheese and Corn: Fold in the fresh corn kernels and creamy plant-based cheese to the mixture, making sure everything is evenly blended. This step creates that wonderfully rich and creamy texture everyone loves.
  4. Incorporate Natural Gelling Agent: Sprinkle the natural gelling agent evenly over the mixture, then gently fold it in to help the casserole set with a smooth consistency once baked.
  5. Bake Until Golden: Transfer the mixture to a greased casserole dish and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until the top turns golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • Use fresh corn kernels for best natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Combine ingredients gently to maintain a light texture without dense batter.
  • Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even cooking and a well-baked crust.
  • Allow the casserole to cool slightly after baking to firm up and make slicing easier.
  • Customize with herbs, spices, or additional ingredients incrementally to balance flavors without overpowering.
