Amish Crushed Corn Fritters Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Combine corn and eggs.
• 2. Sift together into the corn and egg mix the flour, salt, pepper and baking powder.
• 3. Drop corn mixture from tablespoon into a 1 inch of melted shortening. Brown until golden on both sides, turning once.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a heavy pot or deep fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Beat together egg, milk, and melted shortening; stir into flour mixture. Mix in the corn kernels.
• Drop fritter batter by spoonfuls into the hot oil, and fry until golden. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• 1. Combine all the above ingredients and mix them well. Form mixture into walnut size balls and deep fry them in fat.

Steps:

• Beat the egg, milk and sugar together.
• Sift the dry ingredients and add to the egg mixture.
• (If using sifted flour, you can just mix the dry ingredients together well and still get excellent results).
• Add the melted butter or margarine (or oil) and beat or stir briskly by hand until well blended.
• Stir or fold in the corn until evenly distributed.
• Drop by tablespoons into hot deep fat (375 degrees) and cook until golden brown.
• Drain on paper towels.
• Place on plates and dust with confectioner's sugar if desired. These are best if served with maple syrup.
• Notes: I usually try one first.
• If I find the oil is bubbling through the fritter, which would make it too greasy, I'll add a little more flour to the batter to prevent that.
• Also, as a shortcut, instead of deep frying, I usually pour 2 or 3 inches of oil into a large saucepan or electric frying pan and fry that way.
• When one side is brown, I just turn and brown the other side.
