Baked Corn Custard
   #112463
 Ann Nichols (Indiana) says:
I have made a plain corn custard for years (just corn, eggs, milk and seasonings.) This is much better!

Minor adjustments: I use frozen corn, a little less than 2 cups of kernels. For seasoning, my favorite is 1/2 tsp of Mrs. Dash table blend and 1/2 tsp Lawry's season salt. I also use whole grain bread crumbs. My family loves it.
