How to Make Corn Pudding Souffle

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Generously butter a 9-inch cast iron skillet or a 7x11-inch baking dish.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup fine cornmeal, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. In a blender or food processor, combine 1 cup buttermilk, ½ cup heavy cream, 2 large eggs, and ¼ cup melted unsalted butter. Blend until completely smooth.
  5. Add 1 ½ cups creamed corn (or 2 cups fresh corn kernels) to the blender and pulse a few times to combine.
  6. Gently whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared skillet or baking dish.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
  9. Let cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
  10. Optional: Serve warm or at room temperature, topped with caramelized plum tomatoes (sautéed in bacon fat) and crispy bacon crumbles.
