Corn Nuggets

The corn nuggets are an Israeli snack invented back at the beginning of the 90s. In the local cuisine, it is simply called corn schnitzel, for the breadcrumbs crust.
It has immediately become a family favorite and has remained, ever since, a staple in children's meals. We give you the unprocessed, homemade version, for a healthy snack your children are sure to go crazy for.
