Ingredients
  

Dry ingredients
  • 2/3 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 2/3 cup flour
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Wet ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 cup light sour cream or Greek yogurt (I used a half cup of each)
  • 1/2 cup salted butter, melted
  • 1 egg
Corn
  • 1 15-ounce can regular corn, drained
  • 1 15-ounce can cream style corn
Topping
  • 1 1/2 cups crispy onions
Garnish
  • 1/2 cup fresh chopped parsley or other herb of choice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). In a bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and oil, mixing with a fork until the dry mixture is evenly combined.
  2. In another bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, sour cream, melted butter, and egg until smooth. Add the regular corn, cream style corn, and dry mixture, then stir just until everything is incorporated.
Baking
  1. Transfer the batter to a greased 9×13 baking dish and bake for 30 minutes.
  2. Remove the dish from the oven, spread the crispy onions over the top, and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
  3. Let the corn pudding stand for 10 minutes, then finish with fresh herbs before serving.
