In a medium bowl, whisk together the Fritter Batter ingredients until just combined. Let rest for 15 minutes.
In a separate bowl, combine all Three Sisters Filling ingredients.
For the Huitlacoche Aioli, combine all Huitlacoche Aioli ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Heat a lightly oiled cast iron skillet over medium heat.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each fritter. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with remaining batter.
To assemble the stack, place one fritter on a plate, top with a generous spoonful of Three Sisters Filling, and repeat layers. Finish with a dollop of Huitlacoche Aioli and a sprinkle of microgreens.
