Notes

  • Don’t overmix the batter for a tender casserole.
  • Use a greased baking dish to prevent sticking.
  • Bake until golden brown and set in the center.
  • Let it cool slightly before serving for easier slicing.
  • Variations: Add different cheeses, vegetables (diced bell peppers, onions, jalapenos), or cooked meat (bacon, sausage, ham).
  • For gluten-free, use gluten-free corn muffin mix.
  • For dairy-free, use dairy-free sour cream and butter.
  • Spice it up with cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days in an airtight container.
