Description

I never set out to make corn fritters, but I’m always glad when I make them. They’re delightfully yummy! You can serve these in a big basket as a munchie or appetizer … or make them as an accompaniment to grilled hamburgers or a big shrimp or crab boil. Or, for a really special treat, sprinkle them generously with sifted powdered sugar! You’ll just have to trust me on this.

Ingredients

  • ¾ cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • ½ cups Milk, More To Thin If Necessary
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Cayenne Pepper
  • 4 cups (generous) Corn Kernels: Fresh, Frozen, Or Canned
  • 3 teaspoons Chopped Fresh Chives
  • Canola Oil, For Frying
  • Powdered Sugar (optional)
  • Maple Syrup (optional)

Preparation

Mix flour, sugar, and baking powder. Add eggs, milk, salt, and cayenne pepper. Stir together to make a batter.
Add corn and chives to batter. Fold together to combine.

Heat canola oil to 365 degrees. When oil is heated, drop spoonfuls of batter and cook, flipping to the other side, until golden brown.

Drain on a towel-lined plate. Serve alone, with dipping sauces, or sprinkled with powdered sugar or drizzled with maple syrup.

Divine!

Are these similar to fried corn that you see in Texas?

Seriously yummo! Reminds me of the fritters my grandma used to make. I backed off on the cayenne because my hubby’s a wimp with cayenne, but I could have easily left it. I cooked mine in about 3/4 inch of oil in an electric skillet. Portions are right on. I halved it and there was plenty for my husband and I with more for the Dachshunds. Thanks for the recipe! It’s a keeper!
