Image Step 01
01 Step

Recipe View In a large bowl, whisk together the sifted flour, milk, shallots, parsley, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and thyme until just combined. (5 minutes)

Image Step 02
02 Step

Recipe View Gently fold in the grated carrots, being careful not to overmix, which can result in tough fritters. (2 minutes)

Image Step 03
03 Step

Recipe View Cover the bowl and refrigerate the batter for at least 3 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the batter to relax. (180 minutes)

Image Step 04
04 Step

Recipe View Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fat fryer or large, heavy-bottomed pot to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Use a thermometer to ensure accurate temperature. (10 minutes)

Image Step 05
05 Step

Recipe View Carefully drop heaping tablespoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry in batches. (2 minutes per batch)

Image Step 06
06 Step

Recipe View Fry the fritters until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes per batch, flipping them occasionally for even browning. (12 minutes per batch)

Image Step 07
07 Step

Recipe View Remove the fritters with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. (2 minutes)

Image Step 08
08 Step

Recipe View Serve the carrot fritters immediately while they are hot and crisp, accompanied by Bearnaise sauce for dipping. (5 minutes)

For a richer flavor, try browning the shallots in a little butter before adding them to the batter.
If you don't have Bearnaise sauce, a creamy garlic aioli or even a simple ranch dressing works well.
Make sure your oil temperature is consistent for even cooking. If the oil is too cool, the fritters will be greasy; if it's too hot, they'll burn on the outside before cooking through.
Feel free to add other herbs and spices to customize the flavor – a pinch of nutmeg or a dash of cayenne pepper can add a lovely warmth.

    These were surprisingly good! My kids loved them, and they usually turn their noses up at anything with carrots.

  • Cristina Cormier

    The batter was easy to make, and the fritters fried up beautifully. The Bearnaise sauce is a must!

  • Antonina Hoppefarrell

    I found that chilling the batter overnight made the fritters even better. The flavors really had a chance to meld.

  • Mittie Kovacek

    I added a little grated Parmesan cheese to the batter, and it gave them a nice savory kick.
