Best 3 Baked Bean Fritters Recipes

BAKED BEAN FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and eggs until well blended.
• Add the remaining ingredients, except the reserved sauce and the oil.
• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
• Drop the batter by teaspoonfuls into the oil; brown fritters on both sides, turning when the sides begin to bubble, after about 1 minute.
• When fritters are golden and crispy all over, drain on a paper towel lined plate.
• Repeat until all the batter is used.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat the reserved baked bean sauce over low heat until warm.
• Serve as a dipping sauce with the fritters.

OLD FASHIONED PINTO BEAN PATTIES - PINTO BEAN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Drain pinto beans well.
• Mash pinto beans to coarsely or to desired texture using a potato masher, fork or pulse in a food processor.
• Add diced onions, egg, flour, salt and pepper. Mix.
• Form into patties and fry in hot vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Fry for approximately 5 minutes or until golden brown; flip and fry the other side.
• Drain on paper towels, and serve hot.

BLACK BEAN FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the bell peppers, zucchini, and black beans.
• In another bowl, combine the flour, corn meal, baking powder, and brown sugar, and mix well.
• Add the dry ingredients to the vegetables in the large bowl, and fold until well coated (careful not to crush the black beans).
• Add the buttermilk, eggs, salt, and pepper, and stir together until the batter forms - it should resemble very thick pancake batter; if the batter is too thick, you can add buttermilk then an egg until the correct consistency is achieved.
• In a large deep pan or deep fryer, heat the oil to 350 degrees F and drop a spoonful of batter into the hot oil; fry until golden brown then remove, drain, let cool a bit and then taste it to see if the seasonings are to your liking - adjust seasoning if necessary.
• Drop completed batter by large spoonfuls into the hot oil and fry fritters until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side, and they're slightly puffed and cooked through.
• Drain well, serve, and enjoy!
• These go well with a nice green chile sauce and/or sour cream.
• I've also eaten these quite happily for breakfast!
• Note: black soybeans can be used in place of the regular black beans, too. Also, please be advised that these are a *fried* food, and therefore need to be drained well! As with all fried foods, the different oils used for frying can change the outcome. I personally use peanut oil because it has a higher temperature point. Draindraindrain (and perhaps dab with paper towels) if you don't want your fritters to get greasy - if drained properly, they'll be perfect. :).
• These fritters come highly recommended by family, friends, and the professional chef who created them. :).
