Skipped the canned cream corn this year and make it from scratch right in the crockpot – it’s so rich and creamy and unbelievably easy to make with just 5 ingredients!
Simply drop everything in the crockpot, cover, stir and that’s it!

Place corn into a slow cooker. Stir in milk, sugar and pepper until well combined. Without stirring, top with butter and cream cheese. Cover and cook on high heat for 2-3 hours.
Uncover and stir until butter and cream cheese are well combined. Cover and cook on high heat for an additional 15 minutes.
is but can I place all the ingredients in a normal
pan on a low-heat stove? Xx
Hi..this looks AH-mazing..do you know if it re-heats well?
Yes! It reheats very well. We like to nuke it in the microwave in 30 second increments.
I recommend adding about an additional hour if you are planning to double this recipe. Hope that helps!
do u not stir this for 2 hrs? the cream cheese & butter doesnt seem to be mixin in?
Kav, as indicated in the recipe, this is stirred at the end of cooking time, and then cooked for an additional 15 minutes from there.
i just saw this recipe on Pinterest, it looks so yummy… i don’t have a slow cooker, can i make it in a thick ceramic cooking pot in the oven on low heat?

I want to make this right now. That creamy yellow goodness is temping enough for them to swim in it. Argh I might be in 30 degree C weather but I want this!
Oh my gooood this looks amazing! I’m a sucker for creamed corn, love that this is made in the slow cooker! Pinning to make this over Christmas!
This has my name all over it! A local restaurant has a dish similar to this and I’ve been DYING to learn how to make it at home!
I’ll never be sick of comfort food – keep the deliciousness coming. Creamed corn is my favorite side dish ever, and now I can make it in the slow cooker!
So I never make corn for Thanksgiving (I have no idea why because I LOVE it), but now I think I just have to. This looks ridiculously amazing, and I love that I can drop it in the slow cooker and forget about it while I do the rest of my cooking!
I never thought I would use my slow cooker but I use it all the time. It makes life so much easier!
These sounds so yummy! Do you think If I doubled this recipe it would still turn out fine as long as I also double the time of cooking? I really wanted to add this to our Thanksgiving meal, but I am feeding a good amount of people so I knew I would need more than what this post was for. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
I recommend adding about an additional hour if you are planning to double this recipe. Hope that helps!
Also, do you think it would work if I made it the day before and then reheated on the day?
Awesome, thanks! I’ll make it today and then no worries about it being ready on time tomorrow.
It’s ready and OH MY GOD is it good! If it’s half as good after reheating tomorrow the entire double batch is going to disappear in seconds (if I haven’t already polished it off by myself before my guests arrive!). So so so good.
I made this for Thanksgiving and it was gone the same day! No leftovers so I had to go to the store for more ingredients to make another batch! Thanks for sharing cause it is simply yummylicious!
I can’t believe you had to make a second batch! Thanks so much for trying out this recipe – it’s definitely become a favorite of ours!

Did you add the thyme just as garnish?
Yes, it was simply used as a garnish but feel free to add to taste if you’d like!

Can you tell me how many servings this makes?
This looks wonderful!! I would like to make this on Christmas Eve and I need to quadruple the recipe. Do you know if it will work out putting it all together in the slow cooker? Thank you!
This looks delicious. I’m going to make this tomorrow for Christmas dinner! If I double the recipe, am I also supposed to double the cooking time?
I don’t think you actually need to double the cooking time. I would start with an additional 60 min and go from there.
This looks like great. I am excited to try it, but I dont have a crockpot. Can this be put in the oven? Temp? Time? I would like to make it for New Years.
Unfortunately, I’ve never made baked this before so I don’t have the appropriate recommendations/directions for you. This recipe is tailored for the slow cooker method.
I am addicted to corn…I love it and will cook using that recipe. Thanks.
Unfortunately, I have never made this using the stovetop method so I do not have the appropriate recommendations/directions for you. This recipe is tailored for the slow cooker method.

Hi – This was fantastic. Easiest slow cooker recipe ever. Mighty good. Thanks for sharing. Surprisingly, there was some leftover. One question: What are your thoughts on re-heating the leftovers? Stove top? Oven? Microwave? Thanks in advance for the help!
We reheated using the microwave and it tasted just as good. Hope that helps!
Easter emergency! I was going to make this for Easter but now one of our guests is bringing corn salad. I wonder if this recipe would be good with peas instead of corn?
Planning on making this for Easter Sunday and was just wanting someone to verify for me that has already doubled this recipe of how much additional time I should allow? Also, has anyone used salted butter and if so, did it affect the flavor?
I recommend adding about an additional hour if you are planning to double this recipe. Additionally, it is best to use unsalted butter to obtain the best results possible.
This looks delicious! I will need to triple the recipe to feed my crowd at Thanksgiving – how much additional cooking time would you recommend for a triple recipe? Thanks!
Lauren, I actually haven’t tried tripling this recipe myself so I can’t answer with certainty whether cooking time needs to be adjusted at all. I would recommend adding an additional hour and going from there. Hope that helps!
I made this for the women’s book club that I attend on Sundays. All the ladies were raving about it and saved me no leftovers. Super easy and delicious, can’t wait to make it and eat it all by myself! Thank you!
Made this in the slow cooker w frozen corn, added some kosher salt and pureed about a cup of it right in the slow cooker w a hand blender to make it less runny. Made it even more corntastic!
hi could you tell me what size crock pot you used? I have 2 different sizes. Thanks so much! Can’t wait to make the creamed corn!
Does it matter what kind of canned corn? There are so many varieties these days. Golden, shoepeg, white etc…. Going to make this for my daughters birthday
do you think you could make this using peas? my mom used to make creamed peas and they were delicious. i havent found the right recipe yet tho.
Yes, you can certainly add peas but you may have to adjust the other ingredients as needed to compensate for the added ingredient.
i meant make it using just peas, no corn. thank you for answering tho
My mom has made this for 45 years for holidays. We don’t add sugar, instead we add garlic salt. You can feel your arteries hardening as you eat it! A holiday supper would not be the same without it.
That’s a great idea! I did add the sugar and then ended up adding salt when we served it. I bet garlic salt in place of the sugar would work perfectly!
Was wondering.. in the Slow-cooker, do I cook it on Low Heat? or High Heat? I have the options of Warm, Low, High
Mae, it is best to cook on high heat for 2-3 hours.
Could I use salted butter in place of unsalted?
Once the cream cheese has softened and everything has heated through, you’re pretty much set!
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful recipe! My family loved it so much that I decided to place it on my food blog as well with a link back to your blog
Made this dish on Saturday. At first I thought it was pretty disgusting — then I added salt! Definitely add salt before serving. Now I can’t stop thinking about it and I can’t wait to have leftovers during lunch today!
I recommend adding about an additional hour if you are planning to double this recipe.
I have made this for several years for church pot-luck dinners. For something different I started adding a can of green chilies and it was well received! Love your site!! Especially like the Crumble Pumpkin Bread recipe!!
Unfortunately, I cannot answer this with certainty as I have never tried freezing this myself – there were no leftovers left to freeze! I recommend using your best judgment for freezing and reheating.
I have about 50 people coming for thanksgiving. How much more do you think i will need to make than what is called for in the recipe… Surely i will have to do more than just double the recipe. PLEASE HELP lol! (I have a 6 qt crockpot)
Natalie, this recipe yields about 6-8 servings so please make the adjustments accordingly. But if you plan on quadrupling this recipe, a 6 quart crockpot may be too small.
I’m going to make this for Thanksgiving! but in your picture what is the red & green garnish sprinkled on top? Also looks like parmesan cheese?
I made this recipe for Thanksgiving and found it to be wayyy too creamy and cheesy. It was really watery so I added more corn, but it still tasted too creamy and cheesy. I love creamed corn, and I usually love cream cheese, but I thought this was overwhelming. I would cut back on the cream cheese next time. Thanks for sharing though
I doubled this recipe for thanksgiving and it came out perfectly! It was creamy cheesy goodness ! It was a hit for my family and I have been asked to make it again for Christmas ! Thank you!
Looks great and I will make tomorrow in my slow cooker. Question tho, why do you show a pic with Thyme in it but you do not put that ingredient in your instructions. Thanks much !!
