Ingredients

Scale

Butter Sauce Base

  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
  • 4 ounces Cream Cheese

Main Ingredients

  • 4 cups Corn Kernels (fresh or frozen, drained and rinsed if canned)
  • 1/4 cup Honey
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. Melt Butter: Melt the unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to prevent browning. This should take about 2 minutes.
  2. Cook Corn: Add the corn kernels to the skillet. Stir occasionally, cooking for 5-6 minutes until the kernels are lightly golden and tender.
  3. Add Sweetener and Seasoning: Drizzle in the honey along with salt and black pepper, stirring to combine. Allow to simmer for about 2 minutes.
  4. Create Creamy Sauce: Lower the heat to medium-low and add the heavy cream and softened cream cheese. Stir continuously for 2-3 minutes until the cream cheese melts and thickens the sauce.
  5. Serve: Transfer the creamy honey butter corn to a warm dish and garnish with additional pepper or fresh herbs if desired. Serve hot.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, substitute butter with margarine, heavy cream with coconut cream, and use vegan cream cheese.
  • Maple syrup can be used instead of honey to make it vegan-friendly.
  • Canned corn should be well drained and rinsed to avoid excess moisture.
  • Adjust salt quantity according to taste and dietary needs.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for added flavor and color.
