Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup cream style sweet corn
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 Tablespoons honey
  • 1 Tablespoon butter, melted (can use salted or unsalted)
  • ½ cup frozen corn, thawed
  • oil for frying

Instructions

  • Pour about 4 inches of oil into a Dutch oven or a large pot. Bring the temperature up to 325°F. It will be super important that you do not allow the oil to get too hot or they will burn on the outside before the inside is done.
  • While the oil is heating, make the fritter batter. In a large bowl, stir together1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 Tablespoons baking powder and 3/4 teaspoon salt.

  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup cream style sweet corn, 1 large egg, 2 Tablespoons honey and 1 Tablespoon butter, melted.

  • Once the oil is at its temperature, carefully drop Tablespoon portions of the batter into the hot oil. I like to use a 1-Tablespoon-sized cookie scoop. Work in small batches, 5-6 fritters at a time.

  • Fry, stirring occasionally, so they evenly brown for 3-4 minutes.
  • Place on a paper-towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil and then immediately transfer them to a wire rack over a sheet tray (this will keep them crispy on the outside.)

  • Keep the fritters warm in a 200°F oven while you fry the rest of the fritters.
  • Serve immediately.
