Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3/4 cup chopped sweet onion
  • 3/4 cup chopped sweet red pepper
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen corn
  • 2 cups crushed cornbread stuffing
  • 1/2 pound bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
  • 1-1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a 10-in. cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and red pepper; cook and stir until crisp-tender, 6-8 minutes. Remove from skillet; set aside.
    In a large bowl, whisk eggs, cream, baking soda, hot pepper sauce and salt. Stir in corn, stuffing, bacon, 1 cup cheese and the onion mixture. Transfer to skillet.
    Bake, uncovered, 35 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake until puffed and golden brown, 5-10 minutes longer. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
