Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 cups fresh or frozen corn
  • 6 slices smoked turkey bacon, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons plant-based butter
  • 4 ounces plant-based cream cheese
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (natural)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Smoked Turkey Bacon: Begin by chopping the smoked turkey bacon into bite-sized pieces. Lightly sauté them in a pan just until crispy to enhance flavor and texture, then set aside.
  2. Combine Ingredients in Crock Pot: In your crock pot, add the fresh or frozen corn, plant-based butter, plant-based cream cheese, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), apple cider vinegar (natural), onion powder (natural), garlic powder (natural), salt, black pepper, and the natural gelling agent. Stir well to combine.
  3. Cook Slowly: Cover and cook on low heat for 4 to 6 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the mixture to thicken beautifully. Stir occasionally if possible to ensure even cooking and aroma distribution.
  4. Add Bacon and Final Touches: About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the cooked turkey bacon. This step preserves its texture and infuses the dish with smoky goodness. Adjust seasonings as needed.

Notes

  • Use fresh or frozen corn; fresh adds texture while frozen locks in sweetness year-round.
  • Don’t skip the natural gelling agent; it’s key for that perfect creaminess and thick smooth texture without heaviness.
  • Maintain low heat throughout cooking to enhance flavor melding and prevent burning or separation.
  • Season near the end with salt and pepper to avoid over-seasoning as flavors concentrate.
  • For chunkier creamed corn, lightly pulse some corn in a blender before adding to the crock pot.
