Tee's Corn Pudding has the richest consistency that's almost like a dessert. As you're planning the Thanksgiving menu this year, corn pudding should be at the top of your list (behind turkey and cornbread dressing, of course).

If you want to serve your corn pudding in individual servings for a smaller gathering, just bake in ramekins for 10 to 15 minutes longer.

A tip from the Test Kitchen: When the pudding is done baking, it should be golden brown around the edges and slightly jiggly in the center. Test for doneness by inserting a knife into the center of the pudding—it should come out clean.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup sugar

  • 3 Tbsp. all-purpose flour

  • 2 tsp. baking powder

  • 1 ½ tsp. salt

  • 6 large eggs

  • 2 cups whipping cream

  • 1/2 cup butter, melted

  • 6 cups cups fresh corn kernels (about 12 ears)

Directions

  1. Combine first 4 ingredients.

  2. Whisk together eggs, whipping cream, and butter in a large bowl. Gradually add sugar mixture, whisking until smooth; stir in corn. Pour mixture into a lightly greased 13- x 9-inch baking dish.

  3. Bake at 350°F for 40 to 45 minutes or until set. Let stand 5 minutes.

Chef's Notes

You can substitute 6 cups frozen whole kernel corn or canned shoepeg corn, drained, for the fresh corn. To give this dish a Southwestern touch, stir in 1 (5-oz.) can chopped green chiles and 1/4 tsp. ground cumin.
