Best Gardunos Sweet Corn Spoon Bread Recipes

INDIVIDUAL CORN SPOON BREADS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Coat each cup of a 12-cup muffin pan with baking spray.
• Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, salt and baking powder in a small bowl. Whisk together the creamed corn and egg yolks in a large bowl. Stir in the cornmeal mixture, scallions and chipotle. Whip the egg whites in another large bowl until stiff peaks form. Stir about one-third of the egg whites into the corn mixture to lighten it and then fold in the remaining egg whites until no steaks of white remain.
• Spoon the batter into the muffin cups (they will be very full) and bake until puffed and golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool the spoon breads for 5 minutes in the pans. Run a thin spatula around the edges of each to loosen and then remove the breads from the pans. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SWEET CORN SPOONBREAD, THE EASY WAY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (see Note above if this seems too early). Very generously grease a 1 1/2 quart soufflé dish or an 8-inch square baking dish. Whisk cornmeal and 3/4 cup of milk in a small bowl until combined and set aside.
• Melt butter in a pot over medium-high heat. Cook corn until beginning to brown, which can take as little as 3 minutes with fresh corn but with defrosted frozen corn. Stir in sugar, salt, cayenne and remaining 2 cups milk and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, cover, and let mixture steep for 15 minutes.
• If you've got an immersion blender, please use it to save time. Otherwise, transfer mixture to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Back in the pot (or still, if it had never left) bring it back to a boil, reduce heat to low and add the cornmeal-milk mixture, whisking constantly until thickened, about 2 to 3 minutes. If you want to do fewer dishes and don't mind if it takes longer to cool, you can leave it in the pot. Otherwise, transfer to a large bowl and return mixture to room temperature, about 20 minutes.
• Once cool, whisk in egg yolks. Beat egg whites and cream of tartar in a medium bowl until stiff peaks form and fold it in to the corn mixture, one-third at a time. Pour batter into prepared baking dish and baked until spoonbread is golden brown and has risen above rim of dish, about 45 minutes. Serve immediately.
