Southern Corn Fritters

Print Recipe

Fritters are small, sweet or savory fried foods. They are popular in almost every culture. In the South, corn fritters reign.  My mamaw used to make these as a snack sometimes between meals.  I love making them now just to remember all those memories from when we would go to Kentucky to visit her.   She was one amazing Lady.
