From Bampa’s Kitchen: Corn Fritters

Growing up, my family would often go to “the cottage” in Old Lyme during the summer.  The cottage was a place where I knew that if I walked into the kitchen, more often than not in the morning, my Bampa would be making “fritters.”  Now I’ve discussed my issue with anything pancakes before however I never regarded Bampa’s fritters as pancakes.  

One of my favorite comfort foods that I make is my version of his corn or blueberry fritters.  They come out perfectly every time and I keep them in the fridge to snack on if there are leftovers.  He used Bisquick so that makes it a bit easier for this gal here.  It’s one of those dishes that keeps him just a little bit closer to all of us.
