Corn Fritters in 30 Minutes

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
2. In a separate small bowl, beat the egg and milk until combined.
3. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just combined; do not overmix.
4. Stir in the corn and green onions until evenly distributed.
5. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of batter sizzles immediately upon contact.
6. Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of batter per fritter into the pan, pressing down slightly to create a disc about 1/2 inch thick.
7. Fry for 3–4 minutes without moving them until the edges are deep mahogany gold and the bottom is firm.
8. Flip and fry for another 2–3 minutes until both sides are shattering-crisp.
9. Transfer immediately to a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
