Ingredients
1 egg
1 14 oz can Creamed corn
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Oil for frying
Butter for serving
Directions
- In medium sized bowl, whisk egg. Mix in the creamed corn.
- In separate bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt and pepper.
- Slowly add flour mixture to egg and corn while stirring with whisk. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Heat frying pan, medium high and add 1 Tbs of oil. Swirl pan to coat it.
- Working in batches, drop the batter into the hot pan, forming circles. Be sure to leave space between each fritter.
- Cook for 2 minutes or until top of batter starts to bubble. Flip and cook other side for another minute. If fristters start to burn, lower heat to medium.
- Fritters are done when both sides are golden brown.
- Place cooked fritters on cooling rack while cooking the rest of the fritters. This will prevent your corn fritters from getting soggy.
- Serve hot with a pat of butter atop each corn fritter.
Notes
- You can store corn fritters in the refrigerator for 3 - 5 days or freeze them in a sealed freezer container for up to 3 months.
