It's time for SRC again! Ech month, we're assigned another blog to select a recipe from, and this month, I got Flavors by Four, a mother-daughter blogging team, sharing recipes from their families. This month, I chose to make Baked Corn Fritters, a recipe by Nicole. I'd made corn fritters before, but I wanted to try a baked version. In addition, I thought the corn flour would add in some nice texture and liked how Nicole incorporated some additional flavors. I followed her recipe with just some minor changes - using whole milk instead of skim, caramelized onions instead of diced, and green onions instead of chives. Next time, I'd likely use more corn meal since we liked the texture. I'm also thinking about increasing the amount of caramelized onions. The amounts called for would probably provide enough flavor if I had used diced, but with the caramelized onions, some additional onion flavor would make these yummy corn fritters even tastier. We also liked the flavor from the Parmesan cheese, and next time, maybe we'd use more or also add in some cheddar.

What do you like to add to your corn fritters?

  1. I've never made baked fritters before. I normally fry my corn fritters so this is a variation that I would love to have a go at.

  10. I love things made with corn flour! Your fritters look delicious, CJ, and they really are full of wholesome ingredients.

    Funnily enough, I have been thinking a lot about corn flour recently because of the Afternoon Tea class I hosted. One of the cookies use what we call corn flour. However, here in the UK corn flour is what is known in the US/Canada as corn starch. We call corn flour cornmeal. Isn't it funny how things have different names in different places? I had to be sure to mention it in my recipe handout!

    But I digress! Your fritters look so good - I know my family would love them. Thank you for being a part of the Hearth and Soul Link Party Community!

    1. Definitely good things to remember. I should probably make a note of it so there's no confusion - using corn starch vs cornmeal would definitely have different results!
