Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.

Step 2

Add the milk and egg, stirring until you get a smooth batter. Fold in the corn, chopped green onions, and melted butter until well combined.

Step 3

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom. Drop heaping spoonfuls of the batter into the hot pan, gently flattening them into fritters.

Step 4

Cook for 2–3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Repeat with remaining batter.

Step 5

Serve warm as-is or with a dipping sauce of your choice—perfect for brunch, picnics, or anytime munchies!
