Equipment

Ingredients

1 can corn
2 large eggs
1-2 tsp granulated sugar
1 tsp Himalayan salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup flour or flour substitute
1 tsp baking powder
3/4 cup cheddar cheese cheddar, mozzarella, or pepper jack
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp olive oil can use coconut or avocado oil
1/4 cup bacon cooked, crumbled
1 medium jalapeno diced
chives garnish, optional

Instructions

Combine the eggs, salt, pepper, and sugar together in a medium bowl.
Sprinkle in the flour and baking powder into the egg mixture. Combine until well mixed.
Mix in the cheese, bacon, corn, and jalapeno and stir with a wooden spoon.
Place the oil and butter in a large skillet and heat to medium-high heat.
After the pan is heated all the way and the butter has melted add the corn fritter mixture with a large cookie scoop. If you don't have a large cookie scoop a spoon will work. Slightly flatten them.
Cook the corn fritters for 3-5 minutes per side until they are golden brown. Keep an eye on them so they don't burn. Cook until the first side has browned, then flip and cook the other side.
After you remove the corn fritters from the skillet, set them on a plate with a paper towel to drain off any excess oil.
Serve with sour cream, chives, spicy ranch, or any other condiment you enjoy. Devour!
