Important Recipe Notes

  • Be sure to drain the whole kernel corn before mixing so the casserole does not turn out too wet.
  • Fold the cranberry sauce in gently to keep some whole cranberry pieces throughout the casserole.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Stir just until combined for the best soft and tender texture.
  • Every oven cooks a little differently, so check the center around the 45-minute mark. A toothpick inserted in the middle should come out mostly clean.
  • If the top starts browning too quickly, loosely cover the dish with foil during the last part of baking.
  • This casserole tastes best served warm, but leftovers reheat very well the next day.
  • You can make this recipe a few hours ahead of time and warm it before serving for easy holiday prep.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
