GF Grilled Corn Fritters
Ingredients
- 1/3 c cornmeal
- 1/4 c Better Batter All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 2 Tbsp fresh parsley, minced
- 1/2 c milk
- 2 c grilled corn (or if you don't want to grill yours, you can use regular corn kernels)
- Cooking oil (I used vegetable oil)
Instructions
Preheat the oil in the skillet. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 3-4 Tbsp cooking oil to the pan.
Prepare the corn batter. In a large bowl mix together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and minced parsley. Add the milk and mix well with a fork. Stir in the grilled corn and thoroughly mix until all the kernels are well-coated in the flour mixture. Add more milk, one tablespoon at a time, if the mixture seems overly dry.
Pan fries the fritters. Using a 1/4 c measuring cup, scoop up the corn mixture and place into the hot oil. Press down on the corn mixture to flatten but keep the mixture intact.
Cook for up to 5 minutes on the first side, or until golden brown, then flip and cook an additional 5 minutes or until the second side is golden brown. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and keep warm while cooking remaining batter, adding additional cooking oil as needed.
Serve immediately. Makes 6-8 fritters or make smaller ones as an appetizer using 2 tablespoonfuls at a time. These are crispy and delicious and best eaten the day they are made.
