Warm crunchy outside with pops of corn kernels inside along with seasonings and scallions. This easy Corn Fritters recipe can be an appetizer, snack, side dish and sometimes even a dessert!

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin
• 1/4 teaspoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1 large egg room temperature
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
• 2 cups corn kernels
• 1/4 cup scallions , finely chopped
• vegetable oil enough to fill 1/4 inch your skillet or frying pan

Directions

1. In a large bowl whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, cumin, sugar and ground white pepper.
2. In a second mixing bowl bowl, combine wet ingredients including egg, milk and butter.
3. Mix dry ingredients with wet ingredients until just combined. Much like pancakes, you do not want to over beat.
4. Fold in corn and scallions. Allow batter to sit for 15 minutes, preferably chilled.
5. Heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in skillet over medium-high heat to 325°F-350°F.
6. Spoon approximately 1 heaping tablespoon of batter into hot oil. Fry for about 2-3 minutes, turning halfway. Fritters will be a golden brown.
7. Remove to a wire rack suspended over a paper towel lined baking sheet to drain. If you are making a large batch I recommend keeping them warm in the oven while frying.
