With Thanksgiving just around the corner, it’s time to start planning your holiday feast. Classic dishes like roast turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and creamy corn pudding are always a hit with families. One popular corn pudding recipe that has stood the test of time is Mister Rogers’ grandmother’s original recipe, recently shared by PBS Food.
Mister Rogers’ Grandmother’s Corn Pudding is a simple side dish made with just six ingredients: creamed corn, melted butter, milk, eggs, flour, and salt. While the specific origins of the recipe may be unclear, it’s clear that people love this comfort food classic, especially during the holiday season.
To make this dish, all you need is a can of cream-style corn, whole milk, unsalted butter, eggs, all-purpose flour, and salt. The easy prep involves mixing all the ingredients in a bowl, pouring the batter into a baking dish, and baking until set.
I tried the recipe in my own kitchen and found that the texture was looser and wetter than I expected. Unlike the traditional Jiffy corn casserole I’m used to, this version didn’t have the same creamy consistency. While it didn’t meet my expectations, some may prefer this softer, creamier style of corn pudding.
Overall, while Mister Rogers’ Grandmother’s Corn Pudding wasn’t quite my cup of tea, it could be a perfect fit for those who enjoy a softer, creamier side dish. Whether you stick to your own family recipe or give this version a try, corn pudding is a beloved Thanksgiving classic that is sure to please your holiday guests.
