If you love corn as much as this little corn kid (now known around the world as the CEO of corn), you’re going to go nuts for corn fritters, one of my favourite finger foods to fire up anytime.
It’s corn!
These easy sweet corn fritters are a super quick way to add some extra vegetables to your diet and are ready in a flash.
Crispy on the outside and irresistibly light & fluffy on the inside, with the crunch of those plump whole corn kernels, these corn fritters are a fresh and healthy take on flapjacks.
Great as a side dish or even at a barbecue, they contain fibre, certain B vitamins and vitamin C, as well as potassium, magnesium, and antioxidants.
Corn fritters are delicious served with all your favourite dips or alongside a steak or a couple of chops. Whether you prefer them as a snack or a light breakfast meal, these are guaranteed to put smiles on the faces of everyone around the table. They’re corntastic!
