Ingredients
3 cups corn kernels, more for garnishing
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons corn meal
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 large eggs, beaten
¾ cup heavy cream
Vegetable oil for frying
Sliced scallions for garnish
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, stir together the corn, flour, brown sugar, corn meal, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
Whisk in the eggs and heavy cream until well combined. Set aside.
Pour the vegetable oil into a large skillet until the entire bottom is covered.
Heat the oil until shimmering over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, scoop 2-4 tablespoons of the corn batter into the pan, spreading it out like a pancake.
Spoon out batter for another 2 or 3 fritters, taking care not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook the fritters for 2-3 minutes, flip and cook the other side for an additional 3 minutes.
Transfer the cooked fritter to a paper towel-lined baking sheet, and keep warm in a 200-degree oven.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil as needed.
Serve the fritters warm, sprinkled with corn kernels and sliced scallions.
