A rich and creamy corn dish perfect for holiday meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • Pinch of nutmeg (optional)

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

  3. In a small bowl, whisk together milk, heavy cream, and flour until smooth.
  4. Pour the milk mixture into the skillet with the corn. Stir in salt, pepper, nutmeg (if using), and jalapeño (if using).
  5. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 5-8 minutes.

  • This dish can be made ahead and reheated gently on the stovetop or in the oven.
  • Adjust seasoning to your preference.
