Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 cups corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional)
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  4. Fold in the corn, shredded cheese, green onions, and parsley (if using).
  5. Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  6. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of batter for each fritter and drop into the hot oil.
  7. Fry for 2–3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  9. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

  • Add a pinch of chili flakes for a spicy kick.
  • Fritters are best served immediately but can be reheated in the oven for crispiness.
