Southern Sausage Corn Pudding

Southern Sausage Corn Pudding is a cozy, stick-to-your-ribs casserole that brings together the sweet earthiness of corn with the savory richness of breakfast sausage. It’s the kind of dish that feels like a warm Southern hug—hearty, creamy, and bursting with flavor in every spoonful. Whether you’re serving it at a weekend brunch, potluck, or holiday table, this dish never fails to deliver down-home comfort.

At its core, this pudding is a luscious blend of creamed and whole corn, eggs, sour cream, and cheese, all tied together with a touch of cornmeal to give it structure without making it dense. The crumbled sausage adds hearty protein and a savory depth that balances the natural sweetness of the corn. When baked until golden and slightly puffed, it turns into a spoonable casserole that’s both rich and fluffy.

This recipe is incredibly adaptable. You can dress it up with spice, use different cheeses, or serve it with various toppings depending on the occasion. It’s ideal as a main dish or as a flavorful side alongside roasted meats, barbecue, or even a fried egg for breakfast. Leftovers reheat beautifully, making it a fantastic make-ahead option.
