Equipment needed for this crockpot creamed corn:

Ingredients needed for this smoky crockpot creamed corn: Cream cheese, heavy cream, butter, pepper, smoked paprika, frozen cut or creamed corn, salt and sugar.

Can frozen corn be used instead of canned corn?

Frozen corn will have more liquid than drained whole kernel corn. If needed you can add a splash or two of the liquid from the canned corn, or you can use 1/4 cup whole milk and 1/4 cup heavy cream instead of 1/2 cup heavy cream. If you see that the creamed corn is still too thick after it has cooked, you can add a little warmed milk until you get the desired consistency.

Steps 1-2:

• Place corn, sugar, seasonings and heavy whipping cream into a 3-4 quart slow cooker/crock pot, then stir the mixture to incorporate the sugar and seasonings.
• Dot the corn mixture with cream cheese and butter then cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-4 hours. Give the corn mixture a stir every couple of hours to help incorporate the cream cheese. If you are not able to stir the corn every few hours, you can give it a good mix after it has cooked instead. Enjoy!

Every year my in-laws grow a beautiful crop of sweet corn in their garden. We get together for “corn day” and then we clean and cream (or cut, for whole kernel corn) enough corn to last two to three families through the winter. Each meal that we get to use one of the packages of delicious sweet corn, I am very grateful to the Lord for such a generous family to be a part of, and for such a bountiful crop that he blesses us with!
