Ingredients

1 (15 1/4 ounce) can corn, drained
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 large egg
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/2 red onion, minced
1/2 cup cotija cheese
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice
3/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
3 tablespoons sour cream

Directions

1 Preheat an air fryer to 370 degrees F (190 degrees C). Separate out 1/2 cup corn and set aside; pour remaining corn into the bowl of a food processor. Add flour, egg, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Pulse until mixture is incorporated.
