Ingredients
Serves 4- 1 cup corn kernels ((fresh, canned and well drained, or thawed from frozen and well drained))
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup whole buttermilk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon salted butter, (melted (or sub with bacon drippings for smoky flavor))
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- Optional, for serving: honey butter, maple syrup, honey, Ranch dressing, remoulade sauce, comeback sauce, pimento cheese, or a sweet chili dipping sauce
- Vegetable oil, (for deep frying)
Open in Supper to scale servings and turn this into a grocery list.
Steps
- Step 1
Pour about 2 inches of oil into a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot. Heat the oil until it reaches 365°F.
- Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, salt, and pepper.
- Step 3
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk, and melted butter.
- Step 4
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined (don't overmix). Fold in the corn.
- Step 5
Using a cookie scoop or a rounded tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the batter directly into the hot oil. Fry in batches so that you don’t overcrowd the pan, about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed. Turn with a slotted spoon for even browning.
- Step 6
Transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle lightly with salt while they’re still hot.
Interactive, hands-free timers are available in the Supper app.
