Scalloped Corn

Scalloped corn is a comforting casserole that features this all-American veggie topped with tasty bread crumbs. It's good in cool-weather months using frozen corn, though it's absolutely fantastic in late summer using fresh corn. Though kind of a simple and humble dish, it's also welcome at the Thanksgiving table. Photos by Rachael Braun.

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and sauté over medium-low heat until golden. Add the bell pepper and tomatoes and continue to sauté just until they soften.
• Sprinkle in the flour, paprika, and cayenne, stirring them in until well blended. Pour the nondairy milk in slowly, stirring continuously. Bring to a simmer, then stir in the corn and simmer for another minute or so. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Pour the mixture into a lightly oiled shallow oblong baking pan. Quickly toss the oil with the bread crumbs until evenly coated and distribute the crumbs over the corn mixture.
• Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the crumbs begin to turn crusty. Serve at once.
