Delicious Sweet Corn Fritters

An easy to make, one-bowl recipe that’s perfect for a crowd.

Heat sufficient avocado oil in a skillet to coat the bottom of a pan, and add and press approximately 1/3 cup batter for one fritter into the pan once the oil is shimmering (this yields approx 10 fritters). Cook in batches, adding additional oil to the pan as needed. Cook a few minutes each side, until golden brown. Top with avocado and diced tomatoes, add a spicy black bean base, and drizzle with spicy jalapeño crema (recipe below). Store leftovers (if they exist) refrigerated.
