Prepare ingredients by cutting fresh corn kernels from 2-3 cobs or measuring 1 cup of thawed frozen corn.

Mix dry ingredients by combining 1 cup of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder in a large bowl.

Make wet mixture by whisking 2 large eggs until frothy, then mixing in corn, cheese, and green onions.

Combine mixtures gently, folding the wet mixture into the dry mixture without overmixing.

Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes.

Fry fritters by dropping spoonfuls of batter into the oil and cooking until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.

Drain cooked fritters on paper towels before serving.
