Most of the breads usually presented in the group are baked, but sometimes we do quick breads on the griddle, such and pancakes, or even fried breads such as doughnuts or fritters.
For my recipe I chose to make corn fritters using fire roasted grilled corn as a drop batter that also includes cumin and cayenne. Since our theme was breads with spices.
The fritters are similar to hush puppies with a little extra southwest inspired bite. The corn was leftover charred corn on the cob which I cut off and fold it in. I love being able to repurpose extra food!
