Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure a beautifully baked Cheddar Sweet Corn Pie.
  2. Grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or oil, and press pie crust into the dish, trimming excess.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, melt a tablespoon of butter. Add diced onion and sauté for 5 minutes until soft.
  4. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, ensuring garlic doesn’t burn.
  5. Introduce corn to skillet, sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly caramelized, then remove from heat.
  6. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper, then fold in the corn mixture and cheese.
  7. Pour the filling into the prepared crust and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden and a knife comes out clean.
  8. Let the pie cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
