Corn and Ham Fritters

Ham or bacon makes these corn fritters a delicious savory breakfast bread the whole family will love. For sweeter fritters, add a few tablespoons of sugar and serve them with maple syrup or cane syrup.

To keep the fritters warm while frying subsequent batches, place the hot cooked fritters on a rack in a preheated 200 F oven.
