Cheddar-Corn Spoon Bread image

Spoon bread, a classic Southern side dish, is actually more like a pudding than a bread. It's so soft, it can be served -- and eaten -- with a spoon.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon butter, plus more for baking dish
2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups corn kernels
2/3 cup yellow cornmeal
Coarse salt
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1 cup sharp white cheddar cheese
4 large eggs, separated

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter a 2-quart souffle dish or casserole; set aside. In a medium saucepan, combine butter, milk, corn, cornmeal, 1 teaspoon salt, and cayenne. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium, and simmer, stirring frequently, until mixture is slightly thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in cheese. Let cool until just warm to the touch, about 15 minutes. Stir in egg yolks until combined.
  • In a clean mixing bowl, beat egg whites and a pinch of salt until soft peaks form. Stir 1/3 of the whites into cornmeal mixture until combined, then gently fold in the remaining whites with a rubber spatula. Pour into prepared dish.
  • Place dish in oven; reduce oven heat to 375 degrees. Bake until browned on top but still slightly loose in the center, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.

This cornbread is delicious! It's moist and flavorful, and the cheddar cheese adds a perfect touch of cheesiness. I love serving this cornbread with chili or soup.

This is the worst cornbread I've ever had! It was dry, crumbly, and the cheddar cheese was barely noticeable. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I will not be making this again.

I would give this cornbread a 3 out of 5 stars. It's not bad, but it's not the best cornbread I've ever had. The cornbread is a little dry, and the cheddar cheese flavor is a bit too strong for my taste. I might try making it again with less cheese n

This cornbread is okay. It's not the best I've ever had, but it's not bad either. The cornbread is a little dry, but the cheddar cheese flavor is nice. I might try making it again with some different ingredients.

I thought this cornbread was just okay. It was a little dry for my taste, and the cheddar cheese flavor was a bit too strong. I might try making it again with less cheese next time.
