**Corn Pudding**
**Ingredients:**
– 4 cups of corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
– 1/2 cup of sugar
– 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour
– 1/4 cup of cornmeal
– 1 teaspoon of baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon of salt
– 1/4 cup of melted butter
– 1 cup of milk
– 3 eggs
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, sugar, flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Mix everything together until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, and eggs until smooth.
4. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently to combine. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
5. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
6. Bake the corn pudding in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pudding is set in the middle. You can test for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center – it should come out clean.
7. Once the corn pudding is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
