Brooke Homec
This easy creamed corn is buttery, sweet and extra simple to make using frozen corn. It's always a favorite at our table and I'm sure it will be at yours too!

Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup (236.59 ml) milk
  • 1 cup (236.59 ml) heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 16 oz (453.59 g) frozen white corn
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter

Instructions
 

  • Add milk, cream, sugar, salt and frozen corn to a medium saucepan. Cook over medium until it starts to simmer (about 5-10 minutes), stirring occasionally.
  • In a small bowl melt butter and whisk in the flour to create a roux. Once the corn mixture starts simmering, scoop out 2 tablespoons of liquid and mix into the butter/flour.
  • Pour the roux into the saucepan and mix until combined. Continue simmering and stirring over a low heat for about 15 minutes or until the cream has thickened. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
  • Add extra salt and pepper and serve.
