How to Make Corn And Red Pepper Fritters

  1. Whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon sugar in a large bowl.
  2. Gently whisk in 1 large egg, ½ cup milk, and ¼ cup melted unsalted butter until just combined.
  3. Use a potato masher to crush approximately 1 cup of corn kernels.
  4. Fold the mashed corn into the batter along with 1 ½ cups whole corn kernels and 1 cup diced red bell pepper.
  5. Heat about ½ inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, spoon heaping tablespoons of the batter into the hot oil, leaving space between each fritter.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip carefully using a spatula.
  7. Remove fritters from skillet and place on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt while still warm.
