How to Make Grandma's Corn Fritters

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and pepper.
  2. Add the corn, milk, egg, and melted butter. Gently stir until just combined; do not overmix.
  3. Heat about 1/4 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of batter onto the hot skillet, leaving space between each fritter.
  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Remove the fritters from the skillet and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy! These are delicious on their own or with a dollop of sour cream or your favorite dipping sauce.
