This green bean casserole without mushroom soup is my grandmother's recipe that she made every Thanksgiving. Instead of traditional French-fried onions, this from-scratch casserole is loaded with lots of melty Cheddar and a buttery cracker crumb topping. A homemade sour cream-based sauce adds just the right amount of tang to every bite.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 0.25 cups diced onion
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 3 cans French-style green beans , 14.5 ounce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. 2

    To make the green beans: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in flour until smooth, and cook for 1 minute. Stir in sour cream, onion, salt, and sugar.

  3. 3

    Add green beans, and stir to coat. Transfer green bean mixture to a 2 ½-quart casserole dish.

  4. 4

    Spread Cheddar cheese over green bean mixture. Toss cracker crumbs and melted butter together in a small bowl; sprinkle over bean mixture.

  5. 5

    Bake in the preheated oven until topping is golden and cheese is bubbly, about 30 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve and enjoy.
