Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh sweet corn kernels (or frozen, thawed)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions (optional)
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Maple syrup for drizzling
How to Make Sweet Corn Fritters with Maple Drizzle
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and then add the milk. Mix until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the sweet corn kernels and green onions if using, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. To test if the oil is ready, drop a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle.
- Using a tablespoon or small ice cream scoop, drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
- Fry the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Once all the fritters are cooked, drizzle them generously with maple syrup before serving.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to achieve a crispy texture.
- Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the fritters light and fluffy.
- For added flavor, consider adding spices like paprika or cayenne pepper to the batter.
Easy Variations
- Add diced jalapeños for a spicy kick.
- Incorporate shredded cheese for a cheesy twist.
- Use herbs like cilantro or parsley for a fresh flavor boost.
What to Serve With It
- A side of avocado or guacamole for a creamy contrast.
- Freshly sliced tomatoes or a simple salad for a refreshing touch.
- A dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for added creaminess.
