Corn Fritters!

                                                                                 

OH BOY, Corn Fritters our Lancaster County Delicacy! Our Corn Fritters are light puffy pastry that are a cross between a donut and a pancake! Consider them Lancaster County Pennsylvania Dutch Beignets!  A crispy outer crust with light fluffy dough inside the hold sweet nuggets of our local sweet corn. These are eaten hot with pancake syrup drizzled over the top! ENJOY them Foodies!
1 Cup Flour
1 & 1/2 TSP Baking Powder
1/2 TSP Salt
2 HEAPING TBS Sugar
1 Beaten Egg
1/2 Cup Milk + 1 TBS
1 TSP Vanilla
2 Cups Sweet Corn that was cooked & removed from the cob. I just use a knife and run it down the length of the cob!

Place dry ingredients in a bowl & stir well. Add all the wet & stir well to mix. Add cut off corn & stir again. Fry in shortening or oil that is about 2 inches deep & medium high heat. Cook on one side until bubbles for on the top of the fritter & the bottom of the fritter is crispy brown. Once at this stage gently flip over & fry until the other side is crispy brown. Remove from the hot fat & drain on paper towels. Serve hot & with syrup!
