Scale

Ingredients

  • 4 cups corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Corn: If using fresh corn, remove kernels from the cob. If using frozen corn, thaw it slightly for even cooking.
  2. Add Ingredients to Slow Cooker: Place the corn kernels, heavy cream, butter, and sugar into the slow cooker. Stir to combine all ingredients evenly.
  3. Cook the Mixture: Cover and cook on low heat for 3 to 4 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
  4. Check and Season: Once the mixture is creamy and the corn is tender, season with salt and optional black pepper to taste. Stir well.
  5. Serve Warm: Transfer the creamed corn to a serving dish and enjoy it hot as a comforting side dish.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can substitute half-and-half for heavy cream.
  • Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or smoked paprika for a subtle spicy twist.
  • If you prefer a thicker cream, stir in a teaspoon of cornstarch dissolved in cold water about 30 minutes before cooking is done.
  • Use fresh corn when in season for the best natural sweetness and texture.
