Hi all! Just want to put this out there for everyone: FRY THESE AS WRITTEN. Do NOT bake them. Beans contain lectins, which can make you very very ill if not heated thoroughly to denature the protein (just 3-4 uncooked red kidney beans can cause an upset stomach). I actually messed around with this kind of recipe a few years back, baked my fritters, thought they came up to a proper temp (but did not!) and ended up causing a TON of GI distress in my partner and I. So please: FRY THEM THOROUGHLY.
