Do you ever get a CRAVING for summer veggies/fruit but know it's not in season, so you are out of luck! Well, the other night the kids were asking me if I would make them CORN SPOON BREAD and at first, I said NO since you need fresh sweet corn but it is APRIL and where would I get fresh corn. But guess what ...Sunshine Sweet Corn, grown in Florida, is available at our local Grocer now! We don’t have to wait until summer to enjoy it. Woohoo! It's on then.
Sunshine Sweet Fresh From Sunshine State
Sunshine Sweet Corn is non-GMO, extra tender, and regulated for quality control plus it is the cream of the crop – once you taste it you’re hooked! Plus it is PERFECT for the Corn Spoon Bread recipe my kids like!
Corn Spoon Recipe: Chef Jeff McInnis, Root & Bone NYC
You will need:
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup cornmeal, plus more for dusting
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 cup grated corn
- 1 cup corn kernels
- ½ cup grated cheddar cheese
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ cup thinly sliced scallions
- 3 eggs, separated
Instructions
Butter eight 4-to-8-ounce ramekins or custard cups; coat with cornmeal. Tap out excess. In a saucepot over medium-high heat, bring milk, cream, sugar, salt and cayenne pepper to a simmer.
Stir in grated corn and corn kernels. Reduce heat to medium. Add cornmeal, cook constantly stirring to prevent sticking, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until mixture is thickened like grits, 10 minutes more. If the mixture is too thick stir in a little water. Remove from heat; let cool to room temperature.
Heat oven to 350⁰F. When corn mixture is cool, stir in cheese, sour cream, scallions and egg yolks. In a small bowl beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Fold into cornmeal mixture. Spoon mixture into ramekins filling each ⅘ full. Place ramekins in a baking pan large enough to fit them all comfortably. Fill the pan with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Cover the pan with foil. Bake 10 minutes. Remove foil. Bake until the bread is set and lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes longer. The bread should still be a little jiggly in the middle like a soufflé. Remove from oven. Using tongs remove ramekins from the water bath. Let cool 5 minutes. Run a small knife around the cup to loosen the edge of the bread. Gently turn out the bread upside down on a plate and then flip right side up. Serve hot. Number of servings (yield): 8 Type: Dessert
Being able to buy fresh sweet corn at my local grocery store is just what we needed. The Corn Spoon Bread was so sweet and yummy. There were no leftovers for later, darn it! My kids want more so I promised next time we go to the store I will pick up more Sunshine Sweet Corn and make another recipe from SunshineSweet.Corn.com. Corn can be used in so many different kinds of recipes- Corn Chowder, Flatbread, Beef Burrito, Salsa and so much more! Think outside of the box when it comes to FRESH SWEET CORN.
Check with your local grocer and grab some Sunshine Sweet Corn on your next grocery trip, you might think it's Summer with how good this corn tastes!
This sweet corn looks stunning and I sure would love to make some for me and my husband! I've never tried this brand before! I'm really interested.
Sunshine Sweet Corn sounds like they sell quality sweet corn. I love having corn around the house but I've never prepared it this way! Thanks for the recipe!
Hi! I am looking for a good corn spoon recipe. Glad I've stumbled on this site. Thanks for the recipe.

I love sweet corn! Thanks for sharing the recipe! Will give it a try, and good thing it's corn season here in my country. :)
I love corns and I love the fact that we can get this brand in our local grocery. My mouth watered when I saw your blog. I will surely try this recipe.
It really looks yummy and delicious! I wanna taste it right now. I am so interesting about this.
Thank you for this recipe, it looks delectable. I'll try this at home and use all the ingredients exactly as you've enumerated. I hope I can have the same result.
This is yummy! I haven't really tried baking of some sort, I wish there were pictures for every piece of instruction for beginners like me. I'll try my luck. Thank you for this.
I love corn! That spoon bread (?) looks lovely! I don't recall tasting such a dish yet, or maybe I have and I just didn't know what it was called. Good thing the farmer's market isn't too far away. I'm gonna give this one a try! Thanks for sharing!
When reading this, the process seems so simple. I can only hope it is as easy to do as the way I understood the process. Wouldn't wanna waste the ingredients. Then again, perhaps I should just send the recipe over to mom and have her make one for me!
I'm not really into corn but I have to admit, this looks delicious! I hope I'll be able to give it a try one of these days.
Looks delish and easy to do! Thank you for sharing the recipe!
Our family also loves corn spoon bread, and I never thought it was possible to make one even if it's not summer. It is so convenient when your local grocer has all the things you need. Let me do a little shopping so I can check if we have Sunshine Sweet Corn.
I am a sucker for corn. However, the bread mixture makes me hesitant at this for one it looks like a mush. As they say looks can be deceiving so I guess I will try this out.
Can babies eat this? My kid does not like rice pretty much this will be a good substitute to suit his taste. Thanks for sharing.
