Ingredients

  • 32 ounces frozen corn
  • 1 bar (8 oz) cream cheese cubed
  • 1/3 cup whole milk
  • 4 tablespoons butter cubed
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper or more to taste

Instructions

  • Spray the insert of the slow cooker with cooking spray.
  • Add all ingredients into the slow cooker and stir together. Cover with lid and cook on LOW heat for 4-5 hours. 
    * Stir the corn about 2-3 times during the cook time to prevent it from burning to the sides of the slow cooker.
  • Serve with a slotted spoon! You can also leave the corn on the WARM setting for 1-2 hours before serving.

Notes

Sugar : If you like your creamed corn a bit sweeter than add 2 tablespoons of sugar. 
Corn : I use one bag yellow corn and one bag of yellow & white corn. I like the combination. Feel free to use all yellow corn, all white corn, or a mix like I do. I also use 2 bags (16 ounces each) of frozen corn which equals 32 ounces. Be sure you are not buying the 1-minute microwaveable frozen corn. You just want the regular frozen corn. 
Recipe : I originally posted this recipe back in 2015 when I first started this food blog. Since then, I have remade and updated the recipe to reflect the addition of 1/3 cup whole milk. This makes the corn creamier and helps it soften and cook better in the slow cooker.
