Slow Cooker Creamed Corn cooks up super creamy and sweet. Cream cheese, butter, and half-and-half make this a rich and indulgent side dish. This easy crock pot recipe only takes about 5 minutes to prep and then 4 hours in the slow cooker.
It may not seem like it needs to cook that long, but it is the length of time that really thickens it up. It will thicken more as it cooks.
This is a recipe from the cookbook The Simple Kitchen by the food blogger behind The Slow Roasted Italian. The cookbook is full of delicious meal ideas that are easy to prepare.
Slow Cooker Creamed Corn makes a great side dish for Thanksgiving or Easter and is a welcome addition to any family meal. The cream cheese makes it much richer than your typical creamed corn. I like to add a few crushed red pepper flakes for a little heat.
For holiday meals especially, I love making use of my slow cooker. No standing over the stove stirring and no need to worry about oven space. Plus slow cookers are great for preparing foods a little in advance and keeping them warm.
This indugent side dish with tender, sweet pieces of corn covered in creamy goodness is a must make recipe.
