This vegan corn fritter recipe is a favourite in this household, with the kids generally demolishing a few of these with a dipping sauce of choice.
We start this vegan corn fritters recipe by preparing our flax egg. What is a flax egg? It’s an incredible egg substitute and works perfectly as a binding ingredient for a variety of recipes, including this vegan corn fritters recipe.
To make the flax egg, all you need to do is combine 1 tbsp of ground flaxseed and mix with 3 tbsp of water. Allow this to sit for 5-10 minutes and your mixture will begin to resemble a gooey egg-like texture - perfect to help bind the remaining ingredients in this vegan corn fritter.
After making your flax egg, this vegan corn fritters recipe is simply a case of chucking in your ingredients into a blender to make a smooth corn fritter batter.
I like adding a half cup of corn kernels to assist with the fritter texture.
What is also fantastic about this vegan corn fritter, the flavour combination is entirely up to you. I generally like keeping it simple by just adding salt and onion powder, but you could definitely add in some nutritional yeast to get more of a cheesy flavour, or sweet paprika for a nice little punch.
So forget those other vegan corn fritter recipes, this is THE recipe for you!
