Author: The Chef
Recipe type: Appetizer
Ingredients
2 large eggs
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
3 c. fresh or frozen sweet corn kernels, thawed and drained if frozen
1 c. shredded cheddar
6 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 jalapeño, stem and seeds removed, finely chopped
⅓ c. all-purpose flour
¼ c. stone-ground yellow cornmeal
1 tsp. baking powder
¾ tsp. kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for frying
Sour cream, for serving
Instructions
In a large bowl, using a rubber spatula, combine eggs and cream cheese until smooth. Mix in corn, cheese, bacon, and jalapeño. Add flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and a few grinds of pepper and mix until combined.
Into a large skillet, pour oil to a depth of about ¼"; heat over medium heat until shimmering. Working in batches, scoop about ¼ cup corn mixture. Add to skillet and gently pat down to a 3"-wide patty. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining corn mixture, adjusting heat between batches as needed.
Arrange fritters on a platter. Dollop with sour cream.
