MOM'S YELLOW SQUASH FRITTERS
In the mid-Atlantic coastal area, we make our fritters with raw grated squash. I didn't find any recipes here that did, so I hope you will try these. Mom always made a huge batch of these for us. She had the magic touch! I always look forward to making squash fritters every summer. Note: I use either Canola oil or olive oil to make them healthier. I still use the butter because the fritters just taste better fried in butter. Even better, go out in your garden and bring in fresh squash to make this dish! Note: Corrections on July 17 include: 1 egg, beaten and 1 tsp. baking powder I cannot believe I left those ingredients out - I must have been tired. Sorry.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine the squash, onion, salt, sugar, oil and beaten egg. Stir to blend.
- Combine the baking powder with the flour. Add to squash mixture and blend together until you do not see any flour.
- In a heavy skillet, over medium high, melt the butter.
- Drop spoonfuls of the squash batter into the hot butter. Watch carefully as you do when making pancakes. After a couple of minutes, carefully turn to lightly brown the other side.
- As you continue to fry the fritters, you may find that you need to add more butter to the pan and melt it before adding more spoonfuls of the squash batter.
- Cooking time denotes making the whole batch.
- Note: Add more sugar and flour if you desire.

[email protected]These fritters were a bit bland for my taste. I think they needed more seasoning. I also found them to be a bit greasy. Overall, I was not impressed.

[email protected]Easy to make and oh so yummy! I used zucchini instead of yellow squash and they turned out great. I also added a bit of grated cheddar cheese to the batter for an extra cheesy flavor. Definitely a keeper recipe!

[email protected]I'm not usually a fan of squash, but these fritters were surprisingly delicious. The batter was well-seasoned and the squash was cooked perfectly. I served them with sour cream and apple sauce, and it was a perfect combination. Will definitely be mak
