A fritter is a versatile, deep-fried or pan-fried food made by combining a batter or dough with various ingredients such as fruits, vegetables, meats, or seafood. Fritters have roots in multiple cuisines worldwide, including American, Indian, and British, often showcasing regional ingredients. Sweet fritters, like apple or banana, feature a sugary batter, while savory versions incorporate proteins or vegetables like corn or zucchini. Nutritionally, fritters can vary widely. They can provide vitamins and minerals from fresh produce or protein from meat but may also be high in calories, fats, and refined carbs due to the frying process. Healthier alternatives include using whole-grain flour, air frying, or adding wholesome ingredients. While delicious and comforting, fritters are best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
