Serve the Zucchini Corn Fritters hot and fresh. They are delicious on their own or paired with your favorite dipping sauce.
For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or chili powder to the batter.
Squeezing the excess moisture from the grated zucchini is crucial for achieving crispy fritters.
If you don't have fresh corn, frozen corn (thawed and drained) can be substituted.
Adjust the amount of cheese to your preference, or omit it altogether for a dairy-free version.
These fritters are best enjoyed immediately, but can be reheated in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes to restore their crispness.
