For a richer flavor, use browned butter instead of regular unsalted butter. Fresh corn kernels, cut directly from the cob, will elevate the dish with their bright, natural sweetness. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a subtle kick. Spoon bread can be prepared ahead of time and reheated before serving.

01
Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly coat a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
02
Step
5 mins
In a saucepan over medium-high heat, whisk together milk, cornmeal, butter, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens to the consistency of mashed potatoes, approximately 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in corn, green onions, and baking powder, then gently fold in the beaten eggs. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish.

Step
35 mins
Bake in the preheated oven until the spoon bread is puffed and golden brown, about 35 minutes. To ensure it's fully cooked, insert a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
