This soup has all my fall feels going on! It is so delicious and hearty! Every one of the kids enjoyed it-including Branden. LOL!
Fall is my very favorite time of year, every spring I think to myself, ‘how could I ever want fall to come?’ Then summer lasts forever and I’m so anxious to have it cool down and I can’t wait for the pumpkins, leaves, and the scents of fall! With fall in full swing around here this was just what we needed!
6-8 ounces bacon (1/2 package)
2 Tbsp butter
1/4 C all purpose flour
1 C water
2 1/4 C milk
2 chicken bouillon cubes or 2 tsp chicken base
2 red potatoes
3/4 C minced onion
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14 oz.) can corner about 1 1/2 cups frozen fresh corn
A few dashes of hot sauce-tabasco or cholula
optional garnishes-extra crumbled bacon, shredded cheese
Instructions:
- Cook bacon until crisp.
- While the bacon is cooking, melt the butter over low heat in a soup pot. When melted, add flour to make a roux and whisk until it comes together in a little ball. Add water and whisk until completely combined and there are no lumps. Add milk and chicken bouillon or base and bring to a simmer. Add potatoes, onion, and garlic, and simmer (but don’t boil), stirring very frequently, for about 2o minutes or until potatoes are tender.
- Crumble the bacon and add to soup along with the corn. Heat through. Add a few drops of hot sauce and then salt to taste. Start with about 1/2 tsp, give it a few minutes, and then add more if you need it.
- Ladle into bowl and sprinkle with cheese and extra bacon if desired.
**I always add more bacon and potatoes than the recipe says, I also doubled the milk and chicken bouillon. made it more soupy instead of so hearty!

How much milk? It isn’t mentioned in the recipe ingredients.

Hi Mindy, Im not seeing how much milk on the newest recipe for the corn chowder soup. Maybe Im blind.

Thanks Mindy! I’m going to make this over the coming weekend! 🙂
Mindy, it doesn’t say milk in the list of ingredients? Is the water replaced by the milk?? I really want to make this! 🙂 Thanks!!

When do you add the milk?
After you make the roux!
how much Milk? You don’t have it listed in ingredients.
ah nevermind – I see it in another comment.
What is corner … comes in a can?
I think it’s supposed to be 1 can of corn OR frozen or fresh corn
So yummy. Just made it. I did add about a half cup more milk. Could have used almost a whole cup. Regardless… very delicious
You forgot to add the milk to the ingredients. Sounds wonderful. I am unable to eat chicken so I would use vegetable or beef bouillon. Never tried the bread bowls but have seen them.
Sure enjoy your vlogs and watching another church family living a fun clean life. Thank you.
Where did you get the cute pumpkin bread bowls?
I made this last week for my family on the first cool evening we had. It is cold here this morning and before going to school, my daughter asked me if I would make it again tonight. Definitely a hit at my house. Delicious! Thanks Mindy!
Just wondering what cookbook you used for the corn chowder? Thanks!
Okay, I bought everything to make this but cannot find bread bowls anywhere. What stores do you get them at in Utah?
I’m going to make it.. seems healthy..ish x
Thanks for the amazing recipe!! My 2 year old had 2 bowls of it and loves it! #welovethisishowwebinghiam
Could u use a crockpot?
Creamy Corn Chowder is cooking on my stove right now!! 😊
Made this tonight – added a little extra corn. Next time I will add more water to thin it out a bit. It was delicious!
This was so delicious! Saw it on your blog and craved it for days until I made it. Big hit with my husband and son 🙂
HUGE hit for me and my husband. I love all your recipes and want more and more!!! Thanks for sharing. We love your family, we sit down together (my husband and I) and watch you guys every night. Its routine now… Love you guys! xoxo
That is so awesome!! Thank you for sharing and we love you guys too!
Mindy, made this last night. Y-U-M-M-Y!!!!!
First time ever making a chowder and I gotta say my boyfriend and I loved it , I did end up switching the bacon for sausage just because I was out of bacon but it still came out wonderful thanks for this great recipe ^__^
