Spicy Corn Fritters

My kids only like certain vegetables so I am always looking to make something different and interesting.
Corn is there favorite, along with broccoli and asparagus.
The only thing I had on hand was corn. I was making a spicy grilled chicken for the entrée and figured corn fritters will go really great as a vegetable.
I believe that if you make your vegetables interesting you can get just about anyone to taste them, even the kids or most resistant friend.

Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 2 cups of canned corn, drained and rinsed or frozen thawed out, you can use fresh corn about 3 ears.
- 2 eggs, separated
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- canola oil to go half way up the fritter
- 2 tablespoons cane syrup, or as desired (optional)
Directions
1. Whisk flour, cayenne and baking powder into a bowl and mix in corn kernels. Whisk egg yolks with cream in a small bowl and stir into the corn mixture; season with salt and black pepper. Beat egg whites with an electric mixer until fluffy and stiff peaks form in a separate bowl. Gently fold egg whites into the batter, retaining as much volume as possible.
2. Pour canola oil into a deep heavy skillet to a depth of at least an inch. Heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
3. Drop fritters into the hot oil, 2 to 3 tablespoons at a time, and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain fritters on paper towels and serve drizzled with cane syrup.
