Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh or frozen sweet corn (thawed if frozen)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup caramel sauce (plus more for drizzling)
- Vegetable oil for frying
How to Make Sweet Corn Fritters with Caramel Sauce
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs and then mix in the milk and caramel sauce until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the sweet corn.
- Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. To test if the oil is ready, drop a small spoonful of batter in; it should sizzle.
- Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until the fritters are golden brown on one side, about 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully flip the fritters and fry for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Serve warm, drizzled with additional caramel sauce.
Tips for the Best Results
- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter.
- Ensure your oil is hot enough to get a crispy fritter; too low of a temperature will make them soggy.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan; fry in batches to maintain oil temperature.
Easy Variations
- Add chopped jalapeños for a spicy kick.
- Mix in some shredded cheese for a savory twist.
- Experiment with different sauces like chocolate or berry for a unique flavor profile.
What to Serve With It
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic dessert pairing.
- Fresh fruit like berries or banana slices for a refreshing contrast.
- A dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
