    Introduction

    Corn fritters are a delicious way to enjoy the sweetness of corn in a crispy, cheesy bite. This easy recipe comes together in minutes and makes a great snack, appetizer, or side dish for any meal. With Cooking with Greens’ Pink Salt and No Salt Hawaiian Island Blend, you get a perfect balance of flavor in every bite.

    Ingredients

    • 1 can sweet corn, drained
    • 2 eggs
    • 1/8 tsp CWG Pink Salt
    • 1/8 tsp CWG No Salt Hawaiian Island Blend
    • 1/2 cup flour (or use 1/2 cup all-purpose flour and omit baking powder)
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • 1/2 cup shredded cheese
    • Oil, for frying

    Instructions

    1. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, CWG Pink Salt, and CWG No Salt Hawaiian Island Blend.
    2. Stir in drained corn and shredded cheese.
    3. Add flour and baking powder, mixing until just combined. The batter should be thick but spoonable.
    4. Heat a thin layer of oil in a skillet over medium heat.
    5. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, flattening slightly with the back of a spoon.
    6. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
    7. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve warm.

    Tips & Variations

    • Use fresh or frozen corn if preferred—just thaw and drain well.
    • Add chopped scallions, jalapeños, or herbs for extra flavor.
    • Serve with sour cream or a spicy dipping sauce.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    Can I make these gluten-free?
    Yes! Substitute a gluten-free flour blend for the all-purpose flour.
    Can I bake instead of fry?
    You can bake at 400°F on a greased baking sheet for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway for best crispiness.
    How do I store leftovers?
    Refrigerate in an airtight container and reheat in a skillet or oven for best texture.
