Tips and Variations

• If you want a little bit of spice, add some chopped jalapenos to the corn mixture.
• If you prefer a sweeter cornbread flavor, add a tablespoon or two of sugar to the dry ingredients.
• If you want to make this recipe gluten-free, you can substitute the all-purpose flour for a gluten-free flour blend.
• If you don't want to fry the creamed corn, you can bake it in the oven instead. Simply pour the mixture into a greased baking dish and bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
• If you want a more indulgent version of this recipe, you can add some shredded cheese to the corn mixture before frying.
