Festive Corn on the Cob
A corn on the cob recipe that is perfect for Christmas or Thanksgiving! Deliciously festive and easy to make in the oven, with blue cheese crumbles and a simple cranberry sage butter adding tasty holiday flavors.
Ingredients
- 4 cobs corn, trimmed with husks removed - leave whole or cut in half depending on how large you want the servings to be
- 4 tbsp blue cheese, crumbled
- 1 tsp butter, approxomate
Cranberry Butter
- 1 tbsp cranberry sauce, whole or smooth - either is fine
- 2 tbsp salted butter
- 4 sage leaves, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C / 400F.
- Prepare the cranberry sage butter. In a small dish or ramekin, microwave the butter, sage and cranberry sauce until the butter is melted. Place in the fridge - it will thicken up a little while you cook the corn, but it will stay soft and scoopable, rather than turning into a hard block.1 tbsp cranberry sauce, 2 tbsp salted butter, 4 sage leaves
- Rub some plain butter over the corn ears, and add salt and pepper to taste. Place on a baking tray lined with foil or parchment paper.1 tsp butter, 4 cobs corn
- Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes, turning occasionally, until the corn is soft and browned in places.
- Remove from the oven and add to a serving dish. Spoon the cranberry sage butter over the top (you may wish to use a brush to spread it around), and add blue cheese crumbles on top as desired.4 tbsp blue cheese
- Serve immediately.
