this was a fun recipe that got 5 different ratings from the 5 different people who ate it. i liked it alot, but i felt it could have used some cayenne. i ate mine with some hot sauce. dh liked it-ok, dd3 said it was good, dd4 who never eats anything new tried it and loved it, she ate hers with -ketchup(why?- wish i knew) she was upstairs and wanted to know if i was making french toast because the aroma was enticing. dd1 only had a half of one, said they were good-she cheated on atkins for you- this took me 5 minutes to prep and about 20 minutes to cook, i actually got 10 fritters out of the batch this is a great recipe to play with. adding herbs and spices and different cheeses will be fun

This was an excellent twist to traditional corn fritters, which I grew up on, I thought they were GREAT! I am a "cheese lover" and like to adversify my food a bit, this was nothing I was use to and thought it was incredible! Thank YOU!

When I read the ingredients I thought this recipe sounded just wonderful. I made them and I was not impressed at all. I found the fritters were very bland and missing a lot of flavor.
