Steps:
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, onion and cook until softened and beginning to turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Do not let the onion turn brown and adjust the heat as needed to avoid it. Transfer to a slow cooker (any size works here; I used a small 3 quart).
- To the slow cooker, add the corn. Stir in milk, honey, salt, and pepper until evenly combined. Dice the cream cheese and the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and scatter the pieces over the top. DO NOT STIR. Cover the crock pot and cook on high heat for 2 to 3 hours, until the corn is hot and tender.
- Uncover and stir until the butter and cream cheese are well combined. Stir in the Greek yogurt. With an immersion blender, partially puree the creamed corn to thicken it. Stop to stir a few times to make sure you don't over do it; you want the corn to be creamy but still have some nice texture to it. If you don't have an immersion blender, transfer a few ladlefuls of the creamed corn to a food processor or blender and puree (be careful, hot food splatters!). Stir the blended portion back in with the rest of the corn. Keep pureeing batches until your desired consistency is reached.
- To further thicken the creamed corn: keep the crock pot uncovered and cook on high heat for an additional 15 minutes. Stir and salt and pepper to taste. The corn will continue to thicken as it cools down. Serve very warm.

Steps:
- Add the corn kernels to the insert of a 6-quart slow cooker. Use the back of a butter knife to scrape the juice from the cobs and add to the slow cooker. Tie the thyme together with kitchen twine and add to the slow cooker along with the half-and-half, butter, cream cheese, garlic, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cover with a lid and cook on low heat for 4 hours.
- Turn off the heat, remove the lid and discard the thyme. Stir with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until the mixture comes together. Cover with the lid and rest the creamed corn for 15 minutes. Serve topped with bacon and sliced scallions.
Tips:
- Use Fresh or Frozen Corn: Fresh corn on the cob is ideal for this recipe, but frozen corn kernels can also be used. If using frozen corn, thaw it before adding it to the slow cooker.
- Choose Sweet Corn: Sweet corn will give you the best flavor in this dish. If you can find it, use organic sweet corn for the best quality.
- Add Some Heat: If you like a little spice, add a jalapeño pepper or some cayenne pepper to the slow cooker. You can also add some chopped green chilies or red pepper flakes.
- Use Heavy Cream: Heavy cream will give you the richest, creamiest sauce. You can also use half-and-half or milk, but the sauce will be thinner.
- Add Some Cheese: Cheese is a great addition to this dish. You can use cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, or a combination of both.
- Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro, parsley, or chives add a nice fresh flavor to this dish. Sprinkle them on top before serving.
