Apple or Corn Fritters
Cut the kernels off of three ears of fresh corn. You can use frozen, but fresh is better. Sift ¾ cup flour with 1 teaspoon baking powder, ¼ teaspoon salt and a pinch of paprika. Add 1 egg yolk and ¼ cup milk. Mix well. Add the corn kernels. Beat the egg white until stiff. Fold into the corn mixture. Drop carefully by tablespoon into hot oil on a medium heat. They should look flat and round about the size of a silver dollar pancake. Fry on each side until golden brown. Drain on a paper towel. These are delicious drizzled with honey!
You can use this same recipe and use 1 cup shredded apples instead of the corn. Apple fritters are yummy and are best when sprinkled with powdered sugar!
