Notes

  • Prevent over-browning — If the top of the casserole is getting too brown before the center is cooked, cover it with foil to prevent it from over-browning.
 
  • Crock-pot method — To simplify the cooking process, making Cracker Barrel corn casserole in a crockpot is a great option. Combine all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl, just as you would for the oven-baked version, and then transfer the mixture to a slow cooker coated with cooking spray. Cook the casserole for 2-3 hours. For a crispy golden top, don’t forget to sprinkle grated cheese before cooking.
