Corn fritters are crispy, golden bites filled with sweet corn kernels and a fluffy interior. Perfect as a snack, appetizer, or side dish, they’re easy to make and full of comforting flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen and thawed)
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp sugar (optional)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions or chives (optional)
  • 1/2 cup grated cheddar or parmesan cheese (optional)
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and sugar (if using).
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and milk until combined.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  4. Fold in the corn kernels and any optional add-ins like green onions or cheese.
  5. Heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  6. Spoon heaping tablespoons of batter into the skillet, flattening slightly with the back of a spoon.
  7. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Remove fritters and drain on paper towels. Serve warm with dipping sauce or toppings of choice.

Notes

  • Make sure to drain canned or thawed corn well to avoid excess moisture.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan when frying—work in batches for best results.
  • To keep fritters warm while frying batches, place them in a low oven (200°F/95°C).
