- 3 cups corn kernels fresh, frozen, or canned (thawed, if frozen)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup green onion chopped
- 3/4 cup cheddar cheese grated
- Vegetable oil as needed
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
In a large bowl, combine the corn kernels, flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, sugar, baking powder, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
Add eggs and milk and stir until mixed. Add green onion and cheddar cheese and stir gently until combined.
In a skillet over medium heat, heat enough oil to generously coat the bottom of the skillet.
Once oil is shimmering, drop fitter batter in 2 tablespoon portions, then flatten them.
Cook until golden brown and crispy, 3-4 minutes per side.
Work in batches with remaining batter, then remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
