Zesty Avocado Corn Fritters - Vegan recipe hero image

I’ve always loved fritters, but these Zesty Avocado Corn Fritters are a special treat for me.

They remind me of summer picnics, where the sun shines and the laughter flows.

The creamy avocado pairs perfectly with the sweet corn, and the lime zest gives it that zing that leaves you wanting more.

Plus, they're super easy to whip up, making them perfect for a quick snack or a fun appetizer for friends!

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • ✓No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • ✓Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • ✓Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

Fresh corn gives these fritters a lovely sweetness, but if it’s out of season, frozen works just fine. I love using a mix of all-purpose and cornmeal for that extra crunch. The cilantro is totally optional, but if you’re a fan, it adds a fresh kick!

Tips & Notes

  • •If you want a spicier kick, toss in some diced jalapeño or red pepper flakes to the mixture.
  • •I like to keep the fritters warm in the oven on low heat while I finish cooking the rest.

Recipe Variations

  • •Swap out the corn for shredded zucchini for a fun twist!
  • •Sometimes, I’ll add nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor without any dairy.

Storage & Freezing

These fritters are best eaten fresh, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat them in a skillet for that crispy texture to come back!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these fritters ahead of time?

Absolutely! You can prepare the mixture and store it in the fridge for up to a day. Just cook them fresh when you’re ready to serve.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a mixing bowl, mash your ripe avocado until it’s creamy but still has some chunks for texture.

  2. 2

    Add the sweet corn kernels, flour, cornmeal, chopped green onion, cilantro, lime juice, lime zest, baking powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.

  3. 3

    Stir everything together until well combined; the mixture should be thick but scoopable.

  4. 4

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of olive oil.

  5. 5

    Once the oil is hot, use a spoon or ice coconut cream scoop to drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the skillet, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon.

  6. 6

    Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.

  7. 7

    Transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil while you repeat with the remaining mixture.

  8. 8

    Serve warm with a side of avocado crema or your favorite salsa, and enjoy!
