Steps:
- In a large bowl, stir together the corn kernels, flour, sugar, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Stir in the eggs and heavy cream until the batter is well-combined.
- Line a plate with paper towels. Coat the bottom of a large sauté pan with vegetable oil and place it over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, scoop 2- to 3-tablespoon mounds of the corn batter into the pan, spreading it lightly into a flat, circular shape. Cook the fritters for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip them once and cook them an additional 3 minutes until they're golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the fritters to the paper towel-lined plate, season them immediately with salt and repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
- Garnish the corn fritters with scallions and serve them with sour cream or garlic aioli for dipping.

Tips:
- Use fresh corn: Fresh corn on the cob is essential for making the best corn fritters. Look for ears of corn with plump kernels and no blemishes.
- Shuck the corn properly: To shuck the corn, remove the husks and silks. You can do this by hand or with a corn shucker.
- Cut the corn kernels off the cob: Use a sharp knife to cut the kernels off the cob. Hold the cob vertically and cut downward, starting at the top.
- Use a food processor to make the batter: A food processor will help you make a smooth batter for the corn fritters. Add the corn kernels, flour, eggs, milk, baking powder, sugar, and salt to the food processor and pulse until the batter is just combined.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the corn fritters tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fry the corn fritters in hot oil: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add enough oil to cover the bottom of the skillet. Drop the batter by spoonfuls into the hot oil and fry until golden brown on all sides.
- Serve the corn fritters immediately: Corn fritters are best served hot out of the skillet. You can serve them with honey, maple syrup, or your favorite dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Corn fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover corn on the cob. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make delicious corn fritters that your whole family will love.
