Instructions

1

Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even baking.

Stir in the whole kernel corn and cheese blend until evenly distributed.

Fold gently to avoid breaking the corn kernels.

Prepare for baking

Pour the mixture into a greased 2-quart baking dish.

Greasing the dish prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.

Bake the casserole

Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.

Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
