Sweet, aniseed, and soft, these party fritters are quite unique, to say the least, and although you might think fennel seeds are too strong and overpowering in this recipe they work incredibly. Make these fritters sweet or savory they are a fantastic universal party food option suitable for gluten-free and vegans.

Author's Notes

Makes 20 fritters.

Because of the sugar, these fritters are not super crispy, and because they are made with polenta, they will become slightly chewy after a few hours.

For a sweeter version add an extra Tbsp of sugar and 1 1/2 tsp of fennel seeds.
For a savory version swap the sugar and fennel seeds for your savory options.
