I don’t have a video for this recipe.
If I had a photo, I would most certainly use it. That is... unless the photo I have sucks. For now, you'll just have to picture a big heaping helping of
Corn, Bacon & Jalapeño Fritters
...in your mind.

Corn, Bacon & Jalapeño Fritters

Think of these as summer in crispy, golden bite form — sweet corn, smoky bacon, and a little jalapeño heat all bound together and fried until they’re impossible to stop eating. They’re the perfect side for grilled anything, a killer brunch snack, or just something to eat over the sink while pretending you’ll share.
