Easy corn fritters from scratch are the perfect way to use sweet, summer corn.
These sweet and savory fritters are a great snack. You can use frozen or canned corn in place of fresh if it isn’t available to make corn nugget recipes. The batter is made with pantry staples like flour, cornmeal and baking powder.

Potato Corn Chowder with Bacon and Leeks is one of my go to soup recipes when it starts to feel like fall. It’s a thick, comforting soup that’s simple to make and it fills you up without feeling too heavy.
Potato Corn Chowder with Bacon is sponsored by Sprout’s Farmers Market. Thank you for supporting the brands that support Pook’s Pantry. As always, all opinions, recipes and photos are my own.
One of the benefits of big batch cooking is, you guessed it, leftovers. This is the time of year when schedules gets really hectic and being able to come home and heat up a bowl of chowder is a life-saver.
