Hushpuppy Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large bowl, mix together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

  2. 2

    Add Wet Ingredients

    Stir in the finely chopped onion, milk, and beaten egg until well combined. The batter should be thick but not too dry.

  3. 3

    Heat Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot (about 350°F or 175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Hushpuppies

    Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the hushpuppies with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
