Last week at the grocery store, my older girl informed me that she had never had corn on the cob. \u00a0What kind of monster am I to deprive her of that experience? We bought corn and she liked it. \u00a0Then more corn came in my CSA box, and I was stumped: what else<\/em><\/strong> can I do with it? I like this recipe<\/a>\u00a0but I wanted to try something new. So I flipped open this old dear:<\/p>\n

And I stumbled upon this recipe for corn fritters. Yum! But since I can\u2019t leave well enough alone, I added bacon and summer squash to mine. My new recipe: Bacon Corn Fritters<\/strong><\/em>!<\/p>\n

These mix up quickly and fry quickly too. My girls ate these like pancakes with a little maple syrup. I ate mine with a dollop of plain yogurt (or you can use sour cream) and some shredded cheddar cheese. Fantastic! I bet these would be great with some cheese and lots of fresh sliced tomatoes. Sound interesting? Let\u2019s go!<\/p>\n

Bacon Corn Fritters<\/h3>\n

\"danabaconcornfritters\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00b7 3-5 slices of bacon, diced
\n\u00b7 3 ears fresh corn
\n\u00b7 2 zucchini
\n\u00b7 2 eggs
\n\u00b7 \u00bc cup flour
\n\u00b7 \u00bd teaspoon salt
\n\u00b7 1\/8 teaspoon pepper
\n\u00b7 1 teaspoon baking powder
\n\u00b7 2 tablespoons plain yogurt (or use sour cream, or whole milk)<\/p>\n

Directions:
\n1. In a large pan, fry the bacon. When crispy, remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Leave the bacon grease in the pan!
\n2. Using a box grater, grate the corn from the cob into a bowl. Grate the zucchini too.
\n3. Beat the eggs, and then add to the corn and zucchini. Stir in the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and yogurt.
\n4. Heat the pan again. Drop the corn batter by large spoonsful into the hot bacon fat. Flip and brown again.<\/p>\n

Explore, experiment, enjoy!<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Dana<\/p>\n
