I absolutely adore these Zucchini and Corn Fritters. Who am I kidding, I love fritters of any kind, and zucchini is one of my favorite vegetables to cook with, so it was a no brainer to combine the two! I’m always looking for different ways to make the typical zucchini patty a little more interesting and to add some new texture and flavor. I thought corn would be perfect to pair with zucchini, and I was right! This is a great recipe to get your little ones to eat some veggies!
The Best Zucchini Corn Fritters Recipe
As a kid I used to hate zucchini, but now I absolutely love it! I have made so many recipes with zucchini, I can’t even begin to count how many times I’ve used it while I am cooking. There’s stuffed zucchini, zucchini crisps, zucchini loaf, zucchini muffins, even in soups and salads – you name it, I’ve probably made it with zucchini. These patties have a crispy, crunchy texture on the outside, but when you bite into them, you’ll get bursts of corn and zucchini spiced with cayenne and fresh dill – perfection.
Zucchini – shredded. Corn Kernels – fresh or frozen, if using frozen make sure the corn is completely defrosted and drained. Flour – all-purpose flour. Breadcrumbs – any type will do. Eggs – large. Dill – freshly chopped. Cayenne Pepper – for a little spice. Salt & Pepper – to taste. Oil – for frying, such as vegetable oil.
Can I Bake These?
Of course when they’re fried, these are delicious. They’re also great baked, here’s how:
How To Serve
I like to serve these fritters as a starter or appy. My preference is to enjoy them plain, as is, but they’d be delicious paired with a ranch dip, or even a sweet chili sauce!
Storing Leftover Zucchini Corn Fritters
Make sure your fritters have fully cooled down to room temperature before storing! Transfer to an airtight container or large sealable bag. They will last in the fridge up to 3 days.
Reheating
You can enjoy them cold, or reheat the zucchini and corn fritters one of two ways:
Freezing
Let the zucchini corn fritters fully cool down to room temperature before freezing! Place the fritters on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze for 1-2 hours or until solid. Transfer them to an airtight container or freezer bag and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months.
