Ingredients

3 cups leftover cooked turkey meat, finely chopped
1 1/2 cups frozen corn, cooked and fully cooled
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 large eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup green onions, finely sliced
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 cup vegetable oil
cooking spray

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
Drizzle a baking sheet with the vegetable oil. Use a pastry brush to spread the oil, covering the entire cooking surface of the baking sheet. Set aside.
Add all of the ingredients except the vegetable oil and cooking spray to a large mixing bowl. Stir until well combined.
Use a 1/2 cup measuring spoon to scoop mounds of the mixture onto the baking sheet. Gently flatten the mounds so that the fritters are approximately 1/2 inch thick.
Continue to fill the pan, leaving at least 2 inches of space between each fritter. (Depending on the size of your baking sheet, you may have to use two.)
Generously coat the tops of each fritter with the cooking spray.
Bake the fritters for 15 minutes in the preheated oven.
Carefully flip the fritters and bake for another 10 minutes or until the fritters are golden brown and slightly crispy.
Plate, garnish, and serve. Enjoy!
