Fresh Sweet Corn Fritters image

Unbelievably light, these fritters are best with fresh sweet corn. Great for breakfast and with ham or ribs. Serve with maple syrup. Easy to make too! My husband loves these and anticipates corn season.

Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 ears fresh corn, kernels cut from cob
2 eggs, separated
½ cup heavy whipping cream
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 quart vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
2 tablespoons cane syrup, or as desired

Steps:

  • Whisk flour and baking powder into a bowl and mix in corn kernels. Whisk egg yolks with cream in a small bowl and stir into the corn mixture; season with salt and black pepper. Beat egg whites with an electric mixer until fluffy and stiff peaks form in a separate bowl. Gently fold egg whites into the batter, retaining as much volume as possible.
  • Pour vegetable oil into a deep heavy skillet to a depth of 3 inches. Heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Drop fritters into the hot oil, 2 to 3 tablespoons at a time, and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain fritters on paper towels and serve drizzled with cane syrup.

These fritters were a complete disaster. They were greasy, bland, and fell apart when I tried to flip them.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my fritters didn't turn out as crispy as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These fritters were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of corn, but these fritters were surprisingly good. The corn flavor was subtle, and the fritters were crispy and flavorful.

I love that these fritters are baked instead of fried. They're still crispy on the outside, but they're not greasy.
