Description

This Slow Cooker Creamed Corn recipe offers a rich and creamy side dish made with frozen corn, cream cheese, and butter. Perfectly seasoned and topped with crispy bacon and fresh chives, it's an effortless, comforting addition to any meal that cooks slowly to perfection.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 lbs frozen corn
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 4 tablespoons butter cut into cubes
  • 8 ounces cream cheese cut into cubes
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Toppings

  • 6 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced chives

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Place the frozen corn, sugar, and salt into the slow cooker and stir to blend the ingredients evenly.
  2. Add Dairy: Pour the milk over the corn mixture, then arrange the cubed butter and cream cheese pieces on top for even melting during cooking.
  3. Cook Slowly: Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 3 hours to achieve the creamy texture, stirring occasionally if possible.
  4. Stir to Cream: Remove the lid and stir vigorously until the mixture forms a smooth, creamy sauce; continue stirring until completely blended.
  5. Season: Stir in the 1/4 teaspoon of pepper to add a subtle kick to the dish.
  6. Add Toppings and Serve: Sprinkle the cooked and crumbled bacon along with the thinly sliced chives on top before serving to add texture and flavor contrast.

Notes

  • Frozen corn can be used directly from the freezer without thawing.
  • The cream cheese may appear curdled at first; keep stirring until the sauce becomes smooth.
  • If using canned corn, be sure to drain it thoroughly before adding to the slow cooker.
  • Cooking on HIGH for 3 hours is recommended for a creamy consistency, but LOW for 5 hours is also acceptable if preferring a longer cook time.
  • For a richer flavor, use whole milk or substitute with half-and-half.
