Creamy Corn & Macaroni Casserole

Sweet corn melts into the sauce around tender shells while cheddar browns at the bubbling edges. A little pepper and onion keep this creamy bake from feeling one-note.

By Betty Lou Gardner1 hr 10 minUpdated 2026-08-25

This Creamy Corn & Macaroni Casserole is soft, cheesy, and bubbling around the edges with tender pasta, sweet corn, and buttery flavor in every spoonful! Warm and comforting straight from the oven, it’s a classic side dish that fits especially well beside ham, roast turkey, fried chicken, and holiday suppers.

Granny’s Kitchen Notes

From Betty Lou Gardner

I usually sprinkled a little extra cheddar over the top near the end because I liked the browned cheese around the edges best. This always seemed to reheat surprisingly well the next day without drying out much at all.
