1
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk together until well blended.
2
Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Add the finely chopped onion and stir to combine.

3
Mix Mixtures
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be somewhat lumpy.
4
Heat Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
5
Fry Hushpuppies
Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil. Fry in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
6
Drain & Serve
Once cooked, remove hushpuppies with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm.
