Corn Fritters with Kale
These are simple corn fritters with the added goodness of kale, turmeric and flaxseed meal. Just to boost your family’s breakfast. Corn fritters are a great recipe to hide a heap things in, you could also add grated carrot or zucchini or even finely diced garlic.
Turmeric is an amazing anti-oxidant and has great anti-inflammatory properties. It is best eaten in conjunction with black pepper and fat, to enhance the absorption of curcumin. Cook these fritters in a good amount of coconut oil and they make the perfect recipe to add turmeric to. This recipe just adds half a teaspoon but you could easily increase that to 1-2 teaspoons, if your kids are used to the flavour.
I have also added flaxseed meal as I am trying to include flaxseed daily in to our diets. It is rich in essential fatty acids, fibre, vitamins, minerals and anti oxidants and is pretty much flavourless so really easy to add to recipes. I store mine in the fridge as it can go rancid quickly.
PrintCorn Fritters with Kale
- Yield: 10 large fritters 1x
Ingredients
- 11/2 cups plain flour, Spelt is good
- 11/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 3 cups corn kernels, frozen or fresh
- 1 cup grated Mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup kale, leaves only finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
- 1/2 teaspoons turmeric powder
- good pinch of salt and black pepper
- Coconut oil for cooking
Instructions
In a large bowl whisk together the flour and baking powder. Make a well in the centre. Add the eggs and slowly pour in the milk as you continue to whisk until smooth. Stir in the corn, cheese, kale, flaxseed, turmeric, salt and pepper until all well combined.
On a flat hot plate or frypan, over medium heat, scoop out large spoonfuls of batter and cook 2-3 minutes on each side. Don’t have the pan too hot as these are quite thick and will take a bit to cook right through.
Notes
You can leave out the flaxseed meal and turmeric if you don’t have any, these aren’t essential to the recipe just added healthiness.
If you don’t have Mozzarella, Cheddar Cheese is fine.
