Sweet Corn & Pepper Fritters are the kind of warm, crispy Southern bites that make any meal feel brighter — sweet bursts of corn, colorful peppers, and a tender, golden batter fried to perfection. They taste like summertime, porch gatherings, and the kind of homemade comfort that makes everyone smile. One bite is sunshine and soul together.
Ingredients
1 cup fresh, canned, or frozen corn (thawed)
1/2 cup diced red or green bell pepper
1/4 cup diced green onions
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
Oil for frying
Instructions
In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
Add corn, diced peppers, and green onions; stir to coat.
Whisk the egg and milk together, then pour into the dry mixture.
Stir gently until a thick batter forms.
Heat about 1/2 inch of oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, flattening slightly.
Fry 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.
Drain on paper towels.
Serve warm with ranch, spicy mayo, or honey — pure Southern comfort in every bite.
