4 INGREDIENT SCALLOPED CORN! A REALLY RETRO HOLIDAY

Today we are taking a card from Rick's mother's recipe box with this retro classic, scalloped corn. True to their Indiana roots, this easy, 4 ingredient casserole is a timeless, midwestern classic. I consulted my mother in law, Judy for instructions on how to make this and while the instructions were somewhat vague, I winged it and came out the other side winning. Rick says this is exactly as he remembered. SCORE! This is super easy and you can adjust it to feed two or two hundred. Just adjust your ingredients and you should be good to go! This is sweet, savory and full of corn flavor with a crunchy, buttery topping that I know you will love!

This all starts with two cans of creamed corn. Pour one into the bottom of a buttered baking dish. I used a small one. An 8 inch cake pan should do, or even a pie dish would be fine too! Cover the corn with a layer of cracker crumbs. I am using saltine crackers. Next time I am going to use a buttery cracker like a Club or a Ritz cracker. Next I drizzled over half a stick of melted butter and sprinkled 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar over that.

Next layer we repeat the first layer (makes me want to sing "second verse same as the first".) I sprinkled a thicker layer of cracker crumbs on the top so that we would have a nice crunchy layer. Drizzled with the rest of the butter and sprinkled with a bit more sugar. I also added salt and pepper into each layer, but the salt was not necessary. Next time I will leave it out. The crackers are salty enough. Honestly, you could leave out the sugar as well, considering that the creamed corn has sugar in it. Your choice.

Bake this in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes. I checked mine at 30 minutes and found the top was not buttery enough so I placed 2 more tablespoons of butter on it and put it back in the oven for an additional 15 minutes. This came out perfectly! Sweet, savory and surprisingly not runny because I was honestly suspect that without the addition of eggs this would be a runny mess. But it wasn't and everyone enjoyed it a lot!

I hope that you will give this scalloped corn casserole a'la the Lambert family a try and I hope you love it!

Happy Eating and Happy Holidays!
