This is one of my family's favorite side dishes. My mother-in-law made this for me when I was pregnant with my first child, and I couldn't stop eating it. I almost finished the entire skillet. It was so delicious.

Fried Creamed Corn in a cast iron skillet.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This fried cream corn is filled with classic flavors that are sweet, rich, and perfect for summer. It's slightly smoky and creamy, but the fresh corn kernels are still crisp and fresh. We love the savory bacon with the sweet corn in this summer side dish.

How To Make fried cream corn

Step 1

Brown the bacon in a cast iron pan or heavy skillet on medium to medium-high until browned.

Step 2

While the bacon is cooking, in a large bowl mix the corn salt, black pepper, sugar, and flour. Stir until mixed.
Step 3

Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside.
Step 4

Add the corn mixture and cook stirring occasionally to keep from sticking.
Step 5

Halfway through, about fifteen minutes, add the half-and-half, and butter and cook another few minutes before adding the bacon.
Step 6

Add the bacon and cook another five minutes until the bacon becomes heated again. Serve with your favorite meat, green vegetable, and bread. Enjoy.
