Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh or canned corn kernels (drained)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cornmeal
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil (for frying)
- Sour cream or salsa (for serving, optional)
Instructions

- In another bowl, whisk eggs and milk, then pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the skillet, pressing them down slightly to flatten. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
