Dandelion Fritters

First gather the flowers. They show their bright little faces when the sun comes out, so a cloudy day may not give you big beautiful blossoms. Rinse the flowers and blot them dry. In a medium bowl combine:

1 c. milk (any kind will do)
1 egg
1 cup of flour
dash of salt
kiss of maple syrup
dash of nutmeg and cinnamon
olive oil for frying

Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Twirl blossoms in the batter until covered. Drop blossoms onto the skillet, flower side down.
Continue dipping and dropping flowers, checking the first ones every once in a while to see if they are brown. When they’ve lightly browned, flip them over and brown them on the other side. Drain fritters on a paper towel.

Serve drizzled with maple syrup, jam or honey and enjoy.
