Corn fritters are a popular comfort food with roots in Southern American cuisine. These golden, crispy patties feature a blend of sweet corn kernels mixed into a batter made from flour, eggs, milk, and often a touch of sugar for added sweetness. Some recipes incorporate spices, cheese, or green onions for extra flavor. Typically deep-fried or pan-fried, they offer a delightful combination of crunchy texture and tender, savory interior that makes them a favorite side dish or snack. While corn fritters provide some nutrients from the corn, such as fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants, they are often high in calories and fat due to the frying process. Choosing to bake or air fry them can make them a more health-conscious option. Rich in flavor but indulgent in preparation, corn fritters strike a balance between wholesome ingredients and decadent appeal, making them a tasty treat for occasional enjoyment.
