This riff on the popular JIFFY corn casserole includes an extra egg, which gives this version a creamy, almost souffle-like consistency.

It’s Thanksgiving week!

While Christmas will forever and always be our most favorite holiday, nothing beats Thanksgiving food. Yes, the turkey is great, but we live for the side dishes. We sacrifice turkey so there is more room on our plate for stuffing, mashed potatoes, rolls, and… veggie casseroles! Corn is one of our favorites when it comes to casseroles, so we're always up for trying a new spin on corn pudding or corn spoonbread.

This version is similar to the original JIFFY recipe, except that it uses an additional egg and some salt. The extra eggs gives it a little bit more a souffle-like consistency – creamy yet firm. The top and sides of the spoon bread develop an awesome crust, which we will fight everyone for.

If you want a ridiculously straightforward corn spoon bread that everyone will go nuts over, put this on your Thanksgiving menu!

(Also, some cheddar cheese or maybe a crushed Ritz topping could be rich!)
