Ingredients
- 1 (15-oz) can whole kernel corn drained
- 1 (15-oz) can creamed corn not drained

- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

- Once blended, pour the batter into your prepared dish, smoothing the top into a velvety canvas.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, watching for golden edges and a slightly firm yet jiggle-friendly center.
