Corn and Cheese Fritters

What do you do with first corn of the season?

In my house we cook the first batch and eat it from the cob with lots of butter and salt.
Then we grill the second batch on the BBQ with some spices.

After that we make Corn & Cheese Fritters.



My kids get all  excited when they see me removing kernels from fresh cobs. They know it is Corn Fritter time.


Ingredients:
  • 3 Corn Corn on the Cob
  • 3 Eggs
  • 3/4 cup Flour
  • 1/4 cup Cornmeal
  • 1/4 cup Oats
  • 4-5 Green Onions (thinly sliced)
  • 1 cup Colby Jack Cheese
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Oil

Remove the kernels from cobs and put them in a large bowl.

Add eggs and whisk it together. Then add flour, cornmeal, oats, salt and pepper. Mix it until well combined.

Add chopped green onions and shredded cheese. Mix together.


In a skillet heat the oil on medium. Add the batter into the hot oil by spoonful and flatten it to make little pancakes.


Cook on both sides until golden brown. About 2-3 minutes each side.

Serve it with ketchup, sour cream, salsa or my kids favorite ketchup and sour cream mix together.

    These look wonderfully delicious. This is my first visit to your blog. I had planned only to say hello before moving on. I, instead, started reading your earlier posts and stayed far longer than I had intended. I really like this blog and will visit as often as I can. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary
