This Instant Pot Corn Casserole Cornbread is a sweet and creamy festive holiday side dish with corn kernels, cream and butter. A truly delicious holiday creamy corny cornbread!
Instant Pot Corn Casserole
This Instant Pot Corn Casserole recipe is so easy and so delicious.
It can be made in the Slow Cooker or the Pressure Cooker. It is great for holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas and it doesn’t tie up your oven.
You can prepare the batter the night before and keep in the refrigerator.
When you are ready to cook, either pour the batter into your Slow Cooker or if using a Instant Pot, Ninja Foodi or Pressure Cooker, pour the batter into a 6 cup Bundt Pan or Casserole Dish and place in your Instant Pot, Ninja Foodi or Pressure Cooker .
Cast of Ingredients for Instant Pot Corn Casserole
The original list of ingredients for this Instant Pot Corn Casserole, uses a box of Jiffy Cornbread Mix.
As I like to do everything from scratch, use my own Homemade Cornbread Muffin Mix (recipe is off line temporarily), instead of using a box of Jiffy.
Whisk the Eggs
As with most cornbread, you don’t want to over work the batter after the dry ingredients are added.
The order of adding ingredients is important. Add an egg to your Mixing Bowl and Whisk the eggs well.
Add in Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt
The recipe calls for sour cream.
Full fatr is awesome. However, if you want to lighten up the Instant Pot Corn Casserole, go a head and use Light Sour Cream. It works really well too.
Since I am crazy about my Homemade Thick Greek Yogurt, I like to use it in this Instant Pot Corn Casserole in place of Sour Cream.
My Homemade Greek Yogurt comes out thick and creamy and delicious.
Whisk together the eggs and sour cream or Homemade Greek Yogurt, until nicely blended.
Melt the butter and tamper the egg mixture
Using a Glass Measuring Cup, melt the butter.
Remove some of the egg mixture and add it to the melted butter and Whisk together. This is called tampering.
This will cool the butter, so that when you add it to the egg mixture, the eggs won’t cook and the sour cream won’t curdle.
Add the dry ingredients
Add in the box of Jiffy, or if using my Homemade Corn bread Mix, add in the ingredients here.
Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, just to combine.
Pour in both cans of Corn
If using frozen corn, instead of a can of corn, defrost the corn and drain, so that you don’t have excess liquid.
Add the defrosted frozen corn, plus 1/2 teaspoon of salt or a can of drained corn to a Mixing Bowl.
As much as I love frozen corn, I think the canned corn tastes better. Add the whole can of cream corn to the Mixing Bowl.
If you want a bit of a pop, add in a can of drained diced green chiles, or slice up a Jalapeno pepper and add it to the batter.
Gently incorporate the corn into the mixture
Fold the corn into the batter until just incorporated. Don’t over mix the batter.

For baking this Instant Pot Corn Casserole in your Pressure Cooker, you can use a Cake Pan, if you like. However, I recommend using a 6 cup Bundt Pan, as I get the best results.
The Bundt Pans come in two colors and it is the luck of the draw as to which color you get. I was lucky to have gotten both colors!
I have provided this link to Amazon, so you can get your own.
The Holiday Creamy Corny Cornbread seems to cook more evenly and puffs up lighter and fluffier.
Grease a Bundt or Casserole Dish
Grease a 6 cup Bundt Pan, cake pan or casserole dish, using bacon grease, butter or coconut oil, whatever you like.
Pour in the batter and jiggle it about, so that the batter is pretty even in the pan.
Place the Bundt Pan on a Trivet in your Instant Pot, Ninja Foodi or Pressure Cooker.
If you use a Pyrex Glass Bowl, add five minutes to your cooking time.
The Instant Pot Corn Casserole makes a beautiful presentation
To make things even easier, you can use a box of your favorite cornbread muffin mix, or use my homemade Cornbread Muffin Mix (recipe is off line temporarily), if you have the time.
