To me, corn fritters bring back fond memories of running through the sprinklers as a child, and taking a little break on the back steps as my mom handed us each a hot corn fritter.
I love when summer sweet corn is at it’s peak!  There nothing better than some nice fresh sweet corn!  For those of us who have corn out of our ears, check out this corn fritter recipe!
